(Thanks for your rapid reply's, just one more thing to clarify...)

Ok So it exactly the same as normal compilation.

Tell me, how do I avoid those annoying module depency errors? The PC seems
to work perfectly even with these errors, but It doesn't look pretty (during
boot) and I want to be sure that this won't affect the system in the long
term.

I shall be implementing a proxy/samba/firewall solution for a small office
in Dublin.
Do I need more than one PC to do this? What kind of config are we talking?

(There are currently only four users)

Sorry I know thats a little off topic, but I was thinking about compiling
firewall support into the kernel.

What are your recomendations?

Regards
Conor.

Some memory usage patterns make 2.2.15 a lot slower than 2.2.14 - doesnt
affect
that many people but if you are affected you'll notice.

Then add it to /etc/lilo.conf (keep the old entry there too!) and rerun
lilo
