Searched the forums before asking... Does damnsmall 4.x rc2 kernel support ethernet bridging?
Because I installed the bridge-utils package on a debian host and copied brctl to the damnsmall host and ran it and get "add bridge failed: package not installed".
So I hunted in google and found a bridge how-to that states this error happens when bridging is not enabled in the kernel.
If it's not enabled, what can I do to get it enabled in the kernel and remain a live CD?
Or would this be a feature-add request?Maybe the first thing to do would be to check the dsl/knoppix .config file to see if bridging is enabled or not?That seems reasonable enough. Is the .config file used in each iteration of DSL published somewhere?You can get it from the knoppix-3.4 cd or (I think) from the mydsl kernelsources extension.

That's for 2.4.26 kernel versions.
DSL 4.0 RC's use 2.4.31, and can be found in [mirror]/archive/sources-2.1/dsl.config which has CONFIG_BRIDGE=m (not sure if this is what you're looking for?)Next Page...
