Linux toffee-pecan.baddiant.org.uk 2.4.18-6mdk #1 Fri Mar 15 02:59:08 CET 2002 i686 unknown

This is the regualr Mdk kernel as supplied. The only "modification" (if it
makes any difference) is to always manually insmod the modem drivers for
the luent modem on bootup. The following is in my rc.local

-------
#Now sort the modem..
  echo "Insert Modem modules, and link it."
  insmod lt_modem
  insmod lt_serial
  ln -s /dev/tts/LT0 /dev/modem
--------
