Well, I'm not sure it's stable enough. Is it ?

!! Ooops... My fault ;) I had just applied the patch issued by 'make' in
the PATCHES directory. I thought it would include the VFS patch ; after
checking the kernel files it seems it does not (and the README doesn't
say anything about applying the VFS patch separately...).

Ok, now the VFS patch is really there, it works ;) Sorry, the doc files
weren't very clear....

Thanks,

Antoine.
