Hi again and tanks for reply. The way you describe is the way I'm doing it. I have tryed both with and without the "mkinitrd -o....." option. and ofcause updated lilo which I'm using. Sorry for the lack of info, I'll download and compile again and wright down the exsakt error. /ernst-magneSorry, missed one question, as said, I have kernel-image2.6.8 installed which is working fine. in addition to the mention methode above can I keep/use my current kernle-config? /ernst-magne
Yes, that's the whole idea, saves work :)To use the config of the kernel-image2.6.8 copy it's corresponding config file from /boot to the directory where your kernel source is in. Assuming you've installed your kernel source in kernel-source-2.6.10, the commands would look like this:
I already described that step in a previous mail: > cd /usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.10 > cp /boot/config-2.6.x .config Off course for 2.6.8 it would be something like > cd /usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.8 > cp /boot/config-2.6.8 .config Regards, Benedict -- Benedict Verheyen Debian User http://www.heimdallitservices.be Public Key 0x712CBB8D
