Very Computer

I'm running 1.2.9 ELF now and things are back to normal, the partition is
found just fine. Also, the Adaptec 1740 support in the 1.3 kernel is
broken (it works, but lots of errors now and then, lockups), but the 2940
support on my other system is rock stable in 1.3.35.

Also, is there an 8bit console character patch that I can apply to my 1.2
series kernel?

: I've been running 1.2.13 for some time now, all of my partitions
: formatted as ext2. After upgrading to the 1.3 series, on bootup the
: kernel has trouble finding one of my partitions, reporting the error:
: "Can't find valid filesystem superblock"...

Please be explicit - there is no kernel called "1.3 series",
and the behaviour of 1.3.40 is very different from that of 1.3.0.

: series kernel?

I have no idea of what you could mean.
Most patches take more than 8 bits.
The kernel has always been 8-bit clean.

  I am running a very stable 1.3.30 on IDE, but 1.3.37 said I had bad
blocks on ext2 (which, of course, I didn't really).  I've not tried 1.3.38 or
9, but I'm happy enough w/ 30 that I'll wait a bit.
