I wish someone would tell this to the thread I created called

the "sadly no response" is why I created the treads vmlinuz and one

a) It's not immediately obvious why the message you're replying to
relates to those threads.
b) *You* can be *that* someone who replies in the other threads, saying
that they might want to check out these other threads (and mention the
subject line that identifies them, or provide a web link to the
archives, or copy and paste pertinent information), when you think that
another thread that you know about offers useful information to the
followers.
c) If you're trying to provide assistance to a thread, it's not actually
helpful to create a new, and separate, thread.
