Hi,

Okay i have kernel-2.6.6-love4 nearly working perfectly.

I am trying to clean up some warnings and errors now to make sure everything should be working as it should and would appreciate some info on the following warnings on how to erradicate them.

(1)
Code:

checking if image is initramfs.... it isn't (no cpio magic); looks like an initrd


(2)
Code:

ACPI: looking for DSDT in initrd.... not found


(3)
Code:

gx_suspend--error: no Media GX/Geode processor found


(4)
Code:

apm: disabled - APMIS not SMP safe.


(5)
Code:

hw_random: RNG not detected


Any Help much appreciated.

BTW i have an intel 3 gig hyperthreaded processor if thats any help

Adrian.

1- dont sure about this one, maybe related to stuff like pramfs or squashfs compiled (but not used ) in the kernel. Seems harmless, dont worry about this or recompile the kernel without this options. Maybe its realted to the customiced dsdt stuff in love-sources.

2- you activated the option "customize dsdt". Dont worry about this or recompile the kernel without this option.

3- dunno whats this, seems like you enabled something in the kernel you dont need.

4- you dont need to enable apm, acpi will manage all this in your mainboard.

5- did you enable hardware random number generator in you kernel ???

regards
