Weirdness. It must be, as Caulktel stated: Our tar's are newer and must have a bug present. In fact, I'm having a great number of NFS issues with Unbuntu Hoary-Hedgehog, currently - so I wouldn't be surprised! :)

Anyway... back to it - I've downloaded a fresh batch of 2.4.21 kernel source and stuff, and have cleanely compiled a new kernel (at 2.5Mb), so lets see if I can get it to boot [I use NFS to test my kernel's to see if they boot first, before taking the case off the N2200 to play with the CF image]

TT.

All.

Finally managed to get gcc-2.9.5-22 installed correctly on my Unbuntu developement box.

Compiled a 2.4.21 kernel+*no* patches.

Added that to 8363's published boot / filesystem.

My N2200 8363 now boots my very own compiled kernel!

Thanks for all input so far - more reports as I progress.

**Essential info: N2200 8363 with a 2.4.21 kernel *must* be compiled using a v.2.95 gcc compiler - for a correctly formatted kernel image - this cannot be deduced from the different size of the kernel images**

TT.

I don't know anything about IBM NetVista thin clients, but when you are turning it on you might be able to hold down F1 of ESC to make it go to a special menu. From there you should be able to choose different boot options.
I don't know if it will work :( (it worked on a ThinkPad...):)
