2.5.58 and Woody
Dear all,
After a while,
I finally able to boot my woody box with 2.5.58 kernel.
It goes this way:
- download the source
- compile the usual way (not using make-kpkg), make config,
make dep, make bzImage, make modules, make modules_install,
make install.
- in modules_install it failed.
--> solved by installing rusty russel module-init-tools
(manual compile but not installed, just put it in my ~/tmp/,
I just need the depmod)
- after that, it succeed to install.
- configure lilo --> /sbin/lilo --> reboot.
- with vga=791 I got a blank screen, though it seems to
booting on the background.
- setting vga=normal in the boot cmdline, I get the output.
- I get X running, and almost everything else but sound, and
I haven't check my pcmcia ethernet card, too.
When I boot and halt it, I get lots of unresolved symbol
message, but I guess that's because I didn't install the
module-init-tools.
Anybody like to confirm this?
Best regards,
arief_mulya
