Kernel was Re: Woody now sound + kernel
Hi Folks
I installed the 2.4 kernel using dselect and now I can't boot the system
properly (the system says it cant find root on /dev/sda2 - I installed
on 2 partitions 1 for swap and the other for everything else + the
non-partitioned space and the beginning of the disk) and have to use
vmlinuz.old to boot. During installing the kernel .deb the installation
asked something about initre - I think - I just ignored it ;-) and
continued with the instalation was it something important?
Is the new vmlinuz a 2.4.? kernel? I'm really most interested in getting
the sound on the system working :-)
Thanks for any help.
Kind regards,
Peter Watkinson

Hi Folks,
Upgraded to Woody from potato using a mixture of Apt-Get, upgrade and
-f install and dselect everything seems to be working fine except a
few problems with unpacking. Now how do I upgrade the kernel? Is there
a nice easy way?
Also I don't appear to have the sound card configured. This is an
XP1000 is there a simple way to configure the in built sound card?
Will sound support be added with a new kernel? Is there a simple way
to configure the hardware like sndconfig with Redhat?
BTW can't post any email with Balsa as it can't post mail for some
reason so using Mozilla mail.
Thanks for all the help so far :-)
cheers,
