Hi Linus, the attached patch against 2.5.74 (gzip'ed due to it's size) causes blk.h to print a warning and removes all uses of blk.h. I've tested the compilation in 2.5.74 with a .config that tries to compile as many drivers as possible. Please either apply it or send a short note that you don't want to apply it. TIA Adrian -- "Is there not promise of rain?" Ling Tan asked suddenly out of the darkness. There had been need of rain for many days. "Only a promise," Lao Er said. Pearl S. Buck - Dragon Seed
