Tried that once with 2.3.4 on my first, ad-hoc LFS system.
Fortunately I had backups.  ;-)  If I had to rebuild POD for
some reason, then I might.  But for now, it ain't broke.

The reason I'm more interested in using a 2.4 kernel is I'd
expect fewer program compatibility problems using the floppy
system to install my 2.4 version of POD.  After all, there
are several times I need to chroot to the new system to run
certain scripts.

But then we'd have to recompile all the utilities to use the
uClibc, rather than just using what we already have.  Right?

To 2.3.1!  But I need to see how the size of everything
compares.

Not here!
