Re: zimage

[Kenward Vaughan <kaynjay@igalaxy.net>]

If you followed your list of actions exactly, then the problem should lie in
having NOT made a link from the new kernel directory to the linux directory. 
You should run

/usr/src# ln -s kernel-source-2.2.14 linux

after being certain that /usr/src/linux has been removed as a link to your
prior kernel (or deleted, if needed).  Note that I'm showing it being run in
the /usr/src directory!


HTH,
