Downloading Knoppix 3.3, or the best route toward 2.4 kernel
Hi! I'm new to Knoppix but not new to Linux in general, although my
sysadmin experience is medium-light (installing and running my own
RH and SuSE servers, not recompiling the kernel or building my own
distributions).
I'm trying to put together a Linux for my company's telephony-oriented box
(an embedded PC). We have been deploying on NT4 up until now.
We would like to deploy the OS on a read-only partition, so the
the thought is to begin with a running Knoppix install, remaster to
remove all the stuff we don't need and to add the specialized drivers,
and then copy from the cd ISO image to a hard disk partition, leaving
in place all the ramdisk symlinks and such that allows Knoppix to
run from the CD-ROM. It might also make sense to uncompress
some or all of the distribution, since we may be able to fit everything
we need in 700M uncompressed. . . This part entails a lot of questions
for another area of this forum; I'm just giving it as background info
to explain what I'm trying to accomplish. . .
We use some specialized telephony PCI cards that don't have kernel
2.6 support yet so I either need Knoppix 3.3, or retrofit a 2.4 kernel
into 3.8.1, which doesn't sound appealing to me (read: too hard and
not worth the effort).
I can't find 3.3 on any of the mirrors 'cause it's so old. . .
What I'm looking for is:
1. A download site for 3.3, or
2. Some good reasons why I should instead retrofit the 2.4 kernel into
3.8.1, and some clue about what that entails. ![Wink](images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
THANKS!
