Alan,

I have linux 2.2.19pre5 on a UMSDOS based Dell Optiplex Gx1 using
libc5 v2.0.7. Below is my "lsmod" of all modules loaded.
Note: the cpuid module when it isn'tloaded and oopsing the kernel is
fixed now. However, I found a new problem in /proc.

A). Problem: If you "cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/route/flush" you'll get
Invalid argument as an error message. This is a zero length file
(as expected) and I'm not sure what it is supposed to contain.
I can send my kernel ".config" file if you can't duplicate this one.
Note: I do have a regular T1 internet connection, even though I have
the ppp and slip stuff loaded -- these modules aren't being used.
