- Looks like the SLS 0.99 distribution does not have the two fixes posted
- by Linus in article <1992Dec14.201728.14054@tc.cornell.edu> compiled in;
- check for that article under the Subject: - line

- IMPORTANT [BUG in 0.99] Re: [ANNOUNCE]: linux version 0.99

- The solution... uuuhhh... wait for the updated version of SLS, or get
- the kernel sources yourself, patch them by hand (a matter of seconds),
- then recompile. If you've never compiled before, don't forget the soft
- link from /usr/include/linux to point to /usr/src/linux/include/linux,
- and from /usr/include/asm to /usr/src/linux/include/asm.

- Hope this helps
