Problems compiling Kernel 2.6.8.1
Hi,
I'm trying to compile 2.6.8.1 on an A64 Machine.
I boot 2.6.6 from
http://people.debian.org/~jgoerzen/vmlinuz-2.6.6-amd64 which works fine.
I do "make menuconfig", added support for my soundcard und save the changes.
After "make-kpkg kernel_image" it asks me for a Subarchitecture. I
choose "PC" (CONFIG_X86_PC). The Problem is, with this option =y, uname
-m gives "x86". With this I can not Install the nvidia Driver or execute
any 64bit binary. uname -m with the Kernel 2.6.6 booted gives "x86_64".
I took a look at the config file of vmlinuz-2.6.6-amd64. But this config
file doesnt have the Option CONFIG_X86_PC. I searched the Changelogs of
2.6.7 and 2.6.8* for this Option, but it wasnt mentioned.
I dont know, what to do now...
Thanks,
Michael
