Managed to get the lilo problem sorted out, a typo in the lilo.conf, I was loading vmlinux.x.y.z instead of vmlinuz.x.y.z .. lilo -v worked :o))) BUT, on reboot I got a Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs oon 08:07 :o((( Ahh well back to the drawing board..

I am considering just going straight for the 2.4 kernel, maybe that would be a bit less painful?
Depends if you need things from 2.4 or if you need things to work (I hear IR is broken in 2.4 -- fixed yet?)
wbh:
So, recompile that kernel image with less in/more as modules/ using "make bzImage" to get better compression.
I think this is the key advice. -- MJR
