I tried compiling a kernel (2.2.17) for the first time. It compiled, rebooted, and generally worked okay, but there were a few problems
1) I received a startup message indicating that I was using kerneld and almost certainly didn't want to. I don't know how I turned it on, so I don't know how to turn it off. 2) It initialized Soundblaster at io 220 and 330, irq 1 and 5 (which is what it runs at under Windows), but then said "AWE 32 not recognized." I still don't have sound. (Compiled SB and PNP into the kernel.) 3) I received a string of error messages on module autodetect (need to rerun startup sequence to get the exact message). I don't have any modules compiled into the kernel (although I do have the possibility of module dependency enabled). Do I have to compile modules anyway, even though I'm not using any? Or are the old modules from the generic kernel causing the problem? Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. Grace and peace, Keith
