BAD advice!
1. Linux 2.2 already has 1024 filedescriptors per process
2. Linux 2.0 doesn't, but you cannot just change some constants-
it will _seem_ to work but fail at 300-400 filedescriptors.
You need a special patch (filehandle.patch.linux)
Just use an unmodified 2.2.x kernel (as long as x > 2 and x != 5 and x != 8)
