2.6.21.7 retro kernel boots BL2.

No framebuffer support.

I cannot mount /dev/hda1 /hd - wrong fs......
(Can't do this in puppy either - it is automated somehow in the GUI).

The 2.6.21.7 modules I compiled using gcc from SW11 do not work with this kernel (probably because it was compiled with a later gcc). The error message is wrong kernel version but I think it is really wrong gcc version.

It may be possible to insmod module.ko (if you have the correct match between kernel and modules). I will attempt to copy puppy
kernel modules to BL and test.

Puppy with 2.6 kernel works with USB on my Thinkpad 770, as does DOS with two sys files. My 2.4 USB kernel or the non-USB kernel with modules crashes. I am hoping a 2.6 kernel from Puppy will work better.
