Kernel image not recognized
Hi,
I've dowloaded the kernel linux-2.6.11.10.
then:
$: cd /usr/src/
$: tar jxvf linux-2.6.11.10.tar.bz2
$: ln -sf linux-2.6.11.10 linux
$: cd linux
$: make menuconfig
$: make
$: make modules
$: make modules_install
$: make bzImage
$: cp /arch/ppc/boot/images/vmlinux.elf-pmac /boot/vmlinux2.6.11.10
This is what my yaboot looks like:
€ cat /etc/yaboot.conf
## yaboot.conf generated by debian-installer
##
## run: "man yaboot.conf" for details. Do not make changes until you have!!
## see also: /usr/share/doc/yaboot/examples for example configurations.
##
## For a dual-boot menu, add one or more of:
## bsd=/dev/hdaX, macos=/dev/hdaY, macosx=/dev/hdaZ
boot=/dev/hda2
device=/pci@f4000000/ata-6@d/disk@0:
partition=4
root=/dev/hda4
timeout=10
install=/usr/lib/yaboot/yaboot
magicboot=/usr/lib/yaboot/ofboot
enablecdboot
macosx=/dev/hda3
image=/boot/vmlinux
label=Linux
read-only
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
image=/boot/vmlinux2.6.11.10
label=linux2611
read-only
image=/boot/vmlinux.old
label=old
read-only
initrd=/boot/initrd.img.old
When it tries to boot it says that the image is not a recognized elf image.
I tried also with:
$: cp /arch/ppc/boot/images/vmlinux.coff /boot/vmlinux2.6.11.10
$: cp /arch/ppc/boot/images/vmlinux.bin /boot/vmlinux2.6.11.10
$: cp /arch/ppc/boot/images/zImage.elf /boot/vmlinux2.6.11.10
But still doesn't work.
I recompiled correctly from the old config and enabling some more oprtion, recompile did not give any error.
Help
