Hi all,
I compiled a new kernel (2.4.18) for a woody box (a 233MHz pc) on my sid
box (an Athlon 800MHz pc). On sid, I did an 'apt-get install
kernel-source-2.4.26', configured the kernel for my needs, ran
'make-kpkg clean' and used the following command do compile it:
[/usr/src/linux] - 0
[root]@[Kilauea] # MAKEFLAGS="CC=gcc-2.95" make-kpkg \
--append_to_version -586mmx --revision=rev.01 \
--initrd kernel_image modules_image
what gives me a 2.9M file kernel-image-2.4.18-586mmx_rev.02_i386.deb. It
makes me to think that I have a sucessful compiled kernel.
Ok, but when trying to install the image on the woody box this is what I
get:
[~/kernel] - 0
[root]@[Pinatubo] # dpkg --configure kernel-image-2.4.18-586mmx
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of
kernel-image-2.4.18-586mmx:
kernel-image-2.4.18-586mmx depends on initrd-tools (>= 0.1.48);
however:
Version of initrd-tools on system is 0.1.32woody.3.
dpkg: error processing kernel-image-2.4.18-586mmx (--configure):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
kernel-image-2.4.18-586mmx
Further info:
initrd-tools version on the sid box:
[/usr/src/linux] - 0
[root]@[Kilauea] # apt-cache show initrd-tools | grep -i version
Version: 0.1.70
Please could you please give me some advice or show me what I'm doing
wrong?
Regards,
