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
[EMAIL PROTECTED] # 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 [EMAIL PROTECTED] # 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 [EMAIL PROTECTED] # 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,
don't use initrd
