While trying to install alsa on my box, the 2.4.20 kernel was a dependency according to urpm. I've done manual install of kernels but never in the "rpm" world. So I looked for docs on it, found some on mdk user .org : here : http://www.mandrakeuser.org/docs/mdoc/ref/compiling-kernel.html
is it still the way ? 1/ get the src rpm , 2/ install, 3/ configure (via menuconfig or others) 4/ pray , 5/ make dep && make clean bzImage modules modules_install && install 6/ modify lilo or grub to reflect the changes but : nowhere any mention of initrd so is this ok ? : 7/ mkinitrd /boot/????.img kernel-???? thks all -- Arnaud
