Hi,

Thanx guys, for all the support and encouragement. I had another linux installation at home and tried compiling it at home with a new kernel 2.4.4, which i dowloaded from kernel.org I managed compiling it and also booting into it. However before i got too excited, i found that i set my eth0 wrong. I tried to linuxconf and netconf and both gave me pipe broken error. Do i have to recompile and if i do what do i have to take care?

About the upmteen problems that i faced in my office installation I think i will reinstall RHL 6.2 once again and then try to compile to the new version. The basic problem I had was gcc/cc was not installed and therefore i could not compile. Will try installing an older version of gcc.

Noel.
