[NTLUG:Discuss] Re: More about kernel recompiling.

[Scott Denlinger]

As it turns out, the problem appeared to be a corrupt Reiser file 
system. I discovered this after I took my box to the Tucson FUG to 
enlist some in-person help. We eventually realized that it must have 
been a problem with the file system, and I just decided to wipe 
everything out and reinstall Woody with a 2.4.19 kernel, using ext3 
instead of Reiser. Since then I've had no problems with modules, and 
I've learned that if you want journaling, ext3 appears to be a better 
choice than Reiser.

Props to Kyle at TFUG for spending so much time working on my box to try 
to figure out what was going on, and thanks to everyone here for 
offering your suggestions.
