[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] Re: compiling kernel Re: Fwd: [maemo-users] howto use the 770 as wlan-card replacement?

[From: Clemens Eisserer]

Hello again and thanks a lot for your patience,

So no way arround compiling my own kernel if I want to use
masquerading with iptables?
Well sad but then ... it seems I don't have any other chance than to
try it out. Wow cool ;)
But shouldn't it be possible to compile the whole kernel with the
netfilter-stuff built as modules and then just copy the modules and
load them?

Thanks, lg Clemens
