No, I would really like the latest kernel BUT I was just curious of what differences there are - I know very little about the initial scripts used in the very early stages and I managed to get to the point where I compare the original linuxrc (from inside minirt.gz) from DSL and featherlinux - there are not so many differences, only it seems that featherlinux is very early starting the USB modules (it has something like
USB_MODULES="usbcore.o ehci-hcd.o usb-ohci.o usb-uhci.o usb-storage.o"
very early and then something lke
# Load USB modules for booting
loadmodules USB $USB_MODULES
mount -t usbdevfs none /proc/bus/usb > /dev/null
# need to sleep because it takes some time to register things
sleep 4
echo "0" > /proc/sys/kernel/printk
a little later) but obviously I am not experienced enough to take those things from there to DSL and I was wondering if I could convince somebody that knows what he is doing to look at that ... sorry if that looks a little lame
