Yes, I'm pretty sure it's a kernel version issue.  There were some
major kernel VM changes around the time of 2.4.10.  Note if you don't
require any of the new kernel features of more recent kernels, it
should be possible in theory to run the YDL 2.1 2.4.10-12a kernel
with the YDL 2.2 distribution.  I say in theory because I haven't
actually upgraded to YDL 2.2 yet, but I'm doing the opposite by
running a very recent 2.4.19-pre8-ben0 kernel with YDL 2.1, although
I'm not running the java stuff since I don't have any requirement
for it.
