Hi Al and David,

After building the fresh 2.6.27-rc4-git5 kernel with your patch in 
commit 2f4520d35d89ca6c5cd129c38e3b11f0283b7d1b, I have this error on boot :

> Cannot open "/proc/sys/net/ipv4/route/flush"
but networking works fine.

Do I modify something in my sysctl.conf file ? (see attached).

Thanks for your explanations,

Regards.
