Re: Intimate on top of recent kernels?

/ "Hicks, Jamey" <Jamey.Hicks@compaq.com> was heard to say:
| - What kernel modules are missing?

h3600_backpack and serial_cs, at least. Maybe usb-eth. I have to
admit, I struggled a lot and may not have remembered the details
exactly.

Oh, I also couldn't even start PPP because /sbin/pppd is missing.

| - ssh is not meant to be in the bootstrap, but you should be able to install
| it once the bootstrap is installed.

Ok, but how? If I don't have SSH, how do I get the ipaq on the
network? I wanted to use usb-eth and scp to copy files over. I
thought I might be able to get on directly with an ethernet card, but
my Linksys combo card wouldn't initialize (possibly because serial_cs
was missing).

I've finally got things sort-of working, at least now intimate boots
off /dev/hda1 again and doesn't hang (tts/0 in /etc/inittab was the
second to last problem I had).

Now when I boot up, I can't login as root (it says my password is
wrong). I gave up at that point and figured I'd start looking again
this evening. Hints most welcome.
