Sure. I'll let you know. I'm tweaking the kernel right now, but am
still including the ACPI functions. Battery monitoring and power
off/idle timeout seem to work great. I'm a little wary of using the
suspend, just because I've never seen it work right, even in Windows.
But maybe I'll play around with it.
Also, I think the ext2fs (even the first time) was the filesystem of
the initrd image. I am using ext3 now on both the /boot and / slices.
But when booting, it says "Filesystem is ext2fs". Like I said, I
think it's the kernel boot image.
