Everytime I reboot my 6L, I see the following:
init: 2.78 booting
init: run level 5
kernal module mismatch
kbdsim.o compiled for 2.4.6 while this module is 2.4.18
Okay? How do I fix this?
Any help appreciated.

I'd reflash. Maybe someone else has a better idea?

Hmmm...
Well I have my own boot up error. I think I've managed to mess up some of the file system on my 6000L. Here is what I get when I try and start up...
init: version 2.78 booting
init: cannot execute "/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit"
init: entering run level 5
init: connot execute ""/etc/rc.d/rc"
error: usr/sharp/etc/launch.conf -- can not open file
error: launch.conf -- can not open file
/sbin/launch : launch.conf not found.....
from there it goes into an endless loop.
I do have a back-up, and the Flash update rom still works, but I really got in a little over my head. I think if I can get a script that could run off the updater shell I could copy the needed files back in place and then do a full restore from the backup. I just don't know enough to write the files I would need to do that. Can anyone give me a hand with this?

Found my error. Its the keyboard sim in the vnc package. The keyboard sim works but it generates that error when you reboot. The 6000 vnc was written for pre-release roms, thats why its a kernal mismatch I think.

Hi,
the 2.4.6 Kernel was used in the first Sharproms (2.38 eg) for the SL-5500. This model was very popular and so there is a lot of software around for these old roms. Your vnc seems to be from that time. Try to get a vnc for your rom or at least for the latest 5500 rom (3.1x) that also used the Kernel 2.4.18
Cheers,
Sam

I did compile one for 2.4.18 for my rom. (rename to .o)
Would you suggest some VNC viewer? I'd like to integrate one but I don't know them very much. The faster, the better
