0)I missed a module out when I compiled the kernel, how do I
compile
just that module?
1)Would people recommend a 2.2 or 2.4 kernel for mission critical systems which need high availability?
if you are talking about systems which need 500+ days of uptime, then It has to be 2.2 as 2.4 hasn't been tested for that long ;)..
It only has to last 90 days. But it needs to be reliable and boot quickly. Also it needs to have a journelling filesystem of somekind.
2)What would people recommend in the way of journelling file
systems?
I use reiserfs, but it really depends on what you want to do... Neill
How well does that take to being shat upon, i.e. have reboots/powerloss during writes etc...?
Thanks
