Description Jonathan Manning 2002-04-20 23:17:36 UTC

I can't compile non standard modules (like the one for my network card) because 
the kernel headers on the 1.1a CD (2.4.18) don't match the running kernel. 
(2.4.19).

These really should match. It'll make life much easier for users. Especially 
those who's network cards won't work until they can compile kernel modules. ;-)

To fix: update stage1 image to have updated kernel headers in /usr/include/linux

Actually, these aren't supposed to match since the /usr/include headers should
be synced with the build of glibc.
