Jeremy,
Try this recompiling a kernel and getting my machine to boot up
drove me nuts. Eventually I stumbled on a trick that seems to work (for
me anyway). Get into the /usr/src/linux-2.4 dir and type make mrproper,
then make (on its own). This causes the machine to ask for text entries
for
Sounds like the Config file problem. you can get the default kernal
config that comes with Red Hat from the directory configs in your source
tree. Then, find the one that corresponds to your setup and copy it to
the root of the source tree as the filename .config
Then, run make xconfig again and m
If u look in your kernel source configs dir you find
config files for many arch.

Mixing apples with oranges. My bad. Got it somewhat figured out.
Thanks though!

You need ppp-2.4.

NOTES:
1) Get PPP 2.4.0 or later.
It seems I had this problem once too. I resolved it by upgrading pppd to
version 2.4.0. You can get this version at:
ftp://linuxcare.com.au/pub/ppp/ppp-2.4.0.tar.gz
You may consider reading the changes in 2.4.x on this page:

module-info is a RedHat produced file. It's not used by the kernel. It's
included for things like kernelcfg, etc.

I deleted your orginal message... What exact problem are you having? Is
the system booting with the new kernel, but spitting errors on bootup?

Michael:
I did not notice a "make mrproper" in any of your steps. I would do this
after you have backed up the previous kernel. According to the documentation
it removes any old or stale dependencies that may be laying around.
Everything else looks the way I upgraded my 2.2.5-15 to 2.2.14 a coup

Thank you for the document. It's very well written, and easy to

If I do this, will I run into a problem trying to get back to the old
kernel? The System.map symlink no longer points to the original
System.map file, but, instead, points to the newly generated one. Will
this cause a problem if I boot to the old kernel. Second, what about the

Mike,
After you have the newly compiled kernel, you need to put it in your /boot
directory, along with the system.map file. You should name it something
like vmlinuz-x.y.z . Then, rename the kernel that was already there to
whatever_it_was.old. Then there should be a System.map file in /boot w

You don't need to recompile. I didn't. I am running 8i with the
patches and it works great!
Good Luck,

Because that's the way Redhat themselves said to do it in their documentation
(granted, it was their 5.1 manual) and it has always worked for me.
I really don't see any advantage to doing it your way as far as the modules are
concerned (not much difference in doing a vi versus a mv) but it real

Why?

edit the EXTRAVERSION= to include something like -20_r1 where r1 stands
for release 1, then next recompile change it to r2, etc.
Use that naming scheme for

You said you did a make modules_install but didn't say if you did a make

The full command in the /usr/src/linux directory should be:

Prior to running this you should go into the /lib/modules directory and:

make mrproper would take care of the good practice you're after.

Gordon!
I just had a look at the Makefile. I concede that it doesn't but in my
opinion anything called "clean" should be done before you start making
anything anyway. It's just "good" practice.
