13 But you most likely will need an initrd.

15 I am using the custom 2.6.4 kernel from SuSE 9.1 (it has working isdn
16 support for avm fritzcards with avm's binary modules) on one of my
17 gentoo systems. This kernel does not have reiserfs compiled in. If you
18 want to use SuSE's initrd you have to setup udev as well.

20 Until now everything works perfectly.
