Please pay attention. "I need install slackware 10.1". Obviously he
hasn't installed it yet.

This is the second time you recomended some one use reiserfs for a
partition and jfs.s as their kernel. I didn't call bullshit the first
time, because a diff on the configs for bare.i and jfs.s showed SCSI
support for the AIC7xxx series and the user in question was using an
unspecified Adaptec card, but this time I absolutley have to. Here is
a simple diff listing the changes.
alan@carrier:/home/slackware/slackware-10.1/kernels$ diff bare.i/config
jfs.s/config
566c566
< CONFIG_SCSI_AIC7XXX=m

> CONFIG_SCSI_AIC7XXX=y

So in other words, aside from supporting _one_ additional piece of
hardware and the JFS filesystem, jfs.s is identical to bare.i. Now
tell me, why in Bob's name would you recomend some one use the jfs.s
kernel and reiserfs?
