Johan, can you maintain me informed about what you follow _exactly_ for
installing new kernel? I have nslu2 and I have installed debian
following de same link too. I want to compile new kernel that were the
same nslu2 has now + pax support. I searched info but no info convinced
me. I'm a novice user (I compile kernel in i386 machines but no nslu2)
It seemed that I just needed an updated version of the pegasus kernel
module, which is included in the kernel-image of testing:
http://packages.debian.org/testing/admin/linux-image-ixp4xx
So I just downloaded the deb, and installed it using apt-get.
Okay thank you very much, but how to put the new kernel in the boot loader?
Steps are:
1) apt-get install linux-image-ipx4xx
2) [make menuinstall?]
3) [put the new kernel in boot loader?]
Can you clarify me
Thanks a lot,
Xan.
I'm not sure what you mean about putting the kernel in the boot
loader.
The kernel is written to a partition in flash where the boot loader
looks for it. You don't need to do anything to the boot loader or
boot loader environment to use a new kernel.
