I have some problems with 2.2.0-pre2 on my machine. First, I can't
build the system if I set the processor type to PPro/K6/6x86MX although
I do have an AMD K6-2. But I guess this is just a documentation bug.
/usr/src/linux/include/asm/bugs.h: In function `check_config':
In file included from init/main.c:27:
/usr/src/linux/include/asm/bugs.h:354: `smp_found_config' undeclared (first use this function)
/usr/src/linux/include/asm/bugs.h:354: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
/usr/src/linux/include/asm/bugs.h:354: for each function it appears in.)
make: *** [init/main.o] Error 1
Second, the following part of the patch seems to do something wrong:
diff -u --recursive --new-file v2.2.0-pre1/linux/fs/fat/inode.c linux/fs/fat/inode.c

I get the following message in the logfiles
Dec 31 17:04:41 spiff kernel: fat_read_super: Bad fsinfo_offset
and df shows the filesystem to be full. But there are about 3GB free.
ScanDisk (the windows prog) shows an error on checking the disk.
Here some more infos:
[root@spiff /root]# fdisk -l /dev/hda
Disk /dev/hda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 700 cylinders

If you need more infos just let me know.
