Hello
i used yum to download the kernel source which is linux-2.4.22-1.2149.nptl. i then copied config-2.4.22-1.2149.nptl from /boot to /usr/src/linux-2.4/.config. Ran 'make oldconfig', 'make bzImage' ... etc BUT it does not produce a working kernel. During boot 'jbd' and 'ext3' modules complain about wrong version. The're for ....2149.nptl not the new ...2149.nptlcustom
The one possible strange thing is that 'make modules_install' ends like this
mkdir -p pcmcia; \ find kernel -path '*/pcmcia/*' -name '*.o' | xargs -i -r ln -sf ../{}\ pcmcia if [ -r System.map ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F System.map 2.4.22-1.2149.nptlcustom; fi [root@TESTBOX linux-2.4]#
as if that last line wasnt executed ?? and the script bombed ??
Any ideas whats going on ??
David,
Possibly the initrd is not being built. Did you run mkinitrd after building the new kernel? Something like:
mkinitrd -v -f /boot/initrd-2.4.22-1.2149.nptl.img \ 2.4.22-1.2149.nptlcustom
