Hi, Thanks for one more way do it.
But, now I have upgraded 2.2r5 to 2.4.18 kernel and I have options to select either of the kernel images. New Problem : When booted on 2.2.19 kernel ,This version is on network,I can do a telnet to this machine from another machine. But, When booted on 2.4.18 kernel ,installed from kernel.org site.This version is NOT on network,I cannot do a telnet to this machine. when I do a route add #route add -net 192.56.76.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev eth0 Error Message : SIOCADDRT: No such device How do I configure this on network, any debian tool to be used. Please advsise Thanks and Regards Deepak [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote On Tue, Apr 30, 2002 at 04:11:40PM +0200, STOJICEVIC Edi EXPSIA wrote: > Next, these are the steps to upgrade your kernel : ... some manual steps erased ... I already have some Woody cds (from Testing: _not_ official stable) Debian 3.0. I just installed a 2.4.18 kernel that I compiled from a kernel-source-2.4.18 package on the woody cds. Debian provides the make-kpkg utility for doing this. (Note that the Woody cds also have the 2.4.18 kernel pre-compiled and you can just install it with apt-get install kernel-image-2.4.18... - I needed some custom modifications so had to compile). First apt-get install packaging-manual (for info on debian packages) Then apt-get install kernel-package (for the make-kpkg program) Then apt-get install kernel-source-2.4.18 Then cd to /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.18 Then run make-kpkg --revision 1.01.Custom --added-modules extra-modules buildpackage make-kpkg --revision 1.01.Custom --added-modules extra-modules modules cd .. dpkg-source -x kernel-source-2.4.18_1.00.Custom_all.dsc dpkg -i kernel-headers-2.4.18_1.00.Custom_i386.deb dpkg -i kernel-image-2.4.18_1.00.Custom_i386.deb dpkg -i kernel-doc-2.4.18_1.00.Custom_all.deb (I typed the above from memory, you might want to check before you blindly copy this). (Ah yes, before installing kernel-image you might want to move aside your /lib/modules/2.4.18 directory if you had one.) Check the make-kpkg man page. There is a _lot_ of output between commands. Wait for each command to finish before starting the next one. The "make-kpkg ... binary" can take hours if you have a PII, 300MHz for instance. Ok, I'm not sure exactly how long but more than 1 hour. "extra-modules" is whatever other modules you want to compile/install at the same time. I'm sure I've forgotten steps etc. but this is the broad outline (and those are the packages you'll need). Good luck with your project. Better yet, have fun. ---- I was thinking of putting the kernel-*-2.4.18_1.01.Custom* packages into a directory, and telling apt to look there using the file uri, but haven't completely researched it yet (need the format of a Debian archive - woody-style with the "pool" - not sure how to place files in there). I'd also like to know how to create my own source package (I have a module (which is just a .c file) for some hardware that I'd like to pack up into a debian package and then install). I guess that would involve writing install and rm scripts... no big deal, there's just one .o file but I'm out of time on this project.
