Yes i did run make config first. I set it up with Trusting off, 32-bit on, Hot Swap off. I'm using Linux Kernel 2.4.19 and yes I have the source code to the kernel installed. Its installed in /usr/src/linux-2.4.19 with a symlink from /usr/src/linux

I guess I can tell you my laptop is a Thinkpad 760el. Not a very good computer to install anything on because I can't have both a floppy and a cd-rom at the same time. They're swappable and the cd-rom is not bootable. Not to mention so far the only distro that recognizes my cd-rom at all was Knoppix-STD but I can't do a HD install of that because it requires a 2.2 Gb or large hd and mine is only 1.02 GB. I had to install Slackware using SlackFTP http://slackftp.sourceforge.net/

I've got gcc 3.2 and glibc 2.3.1. One note is that I am not running any X-Windows system. Anything else I can tell you? At any rate I'm gonna try a fresh install of Slackware this afternoon. As it turns out the FTP site I downloaded Slackware-current from was only up to date to November 10, 2002....
