1. Huh ?
There is a "way" to make your own kernel according to some mandrake concept of what you're supposed to do ? 2. I have always gone and done everything after getting kernel source, lilo, System.map, etc., etc., etc., Like, "I do hereby assume full responsibility..." And I have not done that with 9B2 yet because it is 9B2 and deserves kicking around to see if it breaks. I feel like it is a given that no kernel will come perfectly out of the box... any comments appreciated here. 3. I have never seen any "Mandrake says step 1 should be..." Readme.txt or something please, or pointer to existing... ? -AEF On Thursday 15 August 2002 08:10 am, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > On Thu, Aug 15, 2002 at 09:34:53AM +0100, Sitsofe Wheeler wrote: > >> Sorry to dredge this up but as Mandrake 9 is still in beta I'm > >> reminded of few points in theregister "review" of Mandrake 8.2 > >> (http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/4/25160.html). > > Yeah it's like that so kernel upgrades take effect without editing > > lilo.conf.
