root filesystem

Hi Shaun. I don't think I compiled support for appletalk, in fact I didn't. So why could modprobe be complaining that it can't find the module? And the worst about is, that as a result of the modprobe error, the kernel won't boot. And everything checks out fine up to that point. Would you know how to fix it so Modprobe doesn't probe for that module when booting my new kernel? Note: I'm going to try to boot the 2.4.18 kernel, but the same thing might happen. Thanks in advance!
