I'm using 1.3.92 kernel with no problems (yet :-). The processor is a P166 w/16mb EDO ram. I'm waiting for Seagate to start shipping the Ultra Wide (ST 34371W) drives - expected to be avail late June or Early July. Quantum says around Oct for their Ultra Wide drives (engineering samples avail in Sept - 4 Gig @ approx $676 :-))). By the end of June I hope that 2.0 will be stable enough for the UW drives. Just think - 40mb/s (max peak) xfer rate, faster, faster, faster,... Bob Grabau rgrabau@darkstar.microserve.com Linux - The choice for a GNU generation.
