Well......I'm confused, but mabye the line above is the thing I missed. I
have not seen the last option "-r /dev/hdax 2.6.xxx.
anyway, this time it did go my way exept for some minor adjustmens. I did
use the .config file from the current instlaled kernel-image but some of
the modules did not install. Modconf did it for me without problem.
so...what I did now was:
apt-get install kernel-source-2.6.8
cd /usr/src
tar xjvf kernel-source-2.6.8.tar.bz2
ln -s kernel-source-2.6.8 linux
cd linux
cp /boot/config-2.6.8-2-686 .config
make menuconfig
make-kpkg --append-to-version=.020305 kernel_image
dpkg -i kernel-image-2.6.8.020305_10.00.Custom_i386.deb
Okay, so far so good, and I tryed a reboot. That did not go well for some
reasons, one of them was probably initrd.img, the second was settings in
lilo.conf, "vga=0x317".
after tweeking lilo and compared loaded modules from the kernel-image
installed I did the last command:
mkinitrd -o initrd.img-2.6.8.020305 -r /dev/hda6 2.6.8.020305
edit symlinks and lilo and rebooted along with some prayers.....
and, barabimbarabom, I was up and running:) great!
Last time when building costum kernelt I did:
make-kpkg --revision=custom.1.0 kernel_image
So now, If I have to add or remove something from the kernel I can just
make the symlink,:
#make clean
#make menuconfig
#make-kpkg --append-to-version=.
One last thing, would it be a good thing to put the kernel on hold, and if
I do is it later possible to remove it?
I will now work on with the config of my Cisco Wlan adapter and see if I
can get it up and running.
Thanks for help :)
