It is still supported, no?  ;)

Do y'all really want to know why?

 (1)  It shaves hours & hours off kernel build times on
      this puny p2.

 (2)  Things that the hardware needs are built into my
      custom kernels.  Firewall is not needed by IBM's
      hardware to boot-up.  ;)

 (3)  I like having modules-files stored separately
      (/boot/modules) from the kernel (/boot/kernel)
      in case I mess-up one or the other during tests.

 (4)  And I LUV Apple's way of doing this same sort of
      thing.  Tiny kernel for booting, then load other
      stuff as needed, on the fly, change parms and/or
      kext code WITHOUT REBOOTING, etc.  ;)

Well I can think of s'more reasons but I hope y'all
get my drift...  ;)

And before I forget _again_ I want to say
THANK YOU for taking time working on all this.
