Kernel Customization.
I tried to customize the installation kernel, but I was not completely
succesful.
1) Debian FAQ says that dpkg will
* install the custom kernel in /boot/vmlinuz_VVV-Custom.N, and set
up appropriate symbolic links to the most recent kernel version.
my /boot directory only contains vmlinuz_VVV.
2) /usr/doc/kernel-source-2.0.29/debian.README.gz says that
A note on LILO: the kernel-image install-scripts arrange to have
/vmlinuz and /vmlinuz.old point to the latest kernel image and the
next most recent one, respectively. You may choose to have LILO take
advantage of this by putting image = /vmlinuz and image = /vmlinuz.old
lines in your lilo.conf (please read documentation on LILO for details).
I don't have /vmlinuz.old. Only /vmlinuz.
3) I don't understand how to deal with modules. I thought that it is
sufficient
to tell xconfig that I want something as a module. Is it true ? When should
I run modconf ?
4) During the init phase, I have some new messages that are scrolling too
fast. How can I read them ?
Thank you.
