So I guess it is possible that you'll experience some difficulties...

I have installed it manually from source following the instructions in the INSTALL file, and they are exactly the same as in the Gentoo wiki. Did the same when I was still using 2.4 and it worked flawlessly. There's gotta be a way for it to work in newer 2.6 kernels as SuSE Linux 10.1 for example comes with submount(modified in some way i guess).

P.S.
btw thank you for your time, I really appreciate it.
