 So I'm not the only one :)

 I am also trying snatches of modutils by rth but couldn't get them
  decently working (I hope it's OK that one hasn't to be a kernel god
  to run a development kernel ;).

 2.1.20 is (slowly) downloading from FUNET, will try that as well...

 Cheers,

Linux kernel-2.1.17  libc-5.4.17  gcc-2.7.2.1  binutils-2.7.0.3
