greets,
modbin
I'm glad to see you here. Really. :-)

And thanks for explanation.

This may be stupid question, but is there a way to make 10.0.0 kernel from 9.8.0 source?

Patch 9.8 kernel for SL instead of patching 10.0 kernel for AMD?

SL is almost useless on AMD without on-the-fly opcode patching. SSE3 emulation and 64-bit support on AMD are also important parts of Voodoo kernel.
