Weird ex-FAT native issue

Fixed. Delete the  *.tree  files from your  /tmp  directory and you should see the correct kernel versions.

PDP-8:
Thanks Rich - that did the trick.  Just cosmetics.  And for sure, the toolkit philosophy of TC, like Unix itself, means there are always more than one way to achieve a goal...

Nick - I'm with you on this one about exfat.  Mostly because I view usb sticks as the modern equivalent of cd/dvd's which TC was originally the design medium for users, so the small increase in ram is to me justified.

But like Rich says, nothing stops me from compiling my own.  But if I was part of the decision making design process, I'd probably vote for it now.

Just semantics, but it's not compiling, it's repackaging.

Depending on the files you are booting, you do this to either  modules64.gz  or  corepure64.gz.

Once unpacked, copy the  exfat  driver to:

--- Code: ---~/tmp/extract/lib/modules/KERNEL/kernel/fs/exfat/exfat.ko.gz
--- End code ---

Then  depmod  and pack it up. You no longer need the  filesystems  extension and the kernel should recognize  exfat.
