Hi, Just wondering if all you people are moving to 2.6 from Woody, Sarge or sid? I have been trying to compile the 2.6.6 kernel on my Woody distro and keep getting depmod errors.
I've tried using a number of different configs as a starting point (including the knoppix one) and still can't seem to get it right. I have now read that there may be issues with Woody going to 2.6. Is that true? If so, I guess I'll try Sarge if that sounds like the best option... All I really want to do is get support for my DVB card! Thanks. Aaron. -----Original Message----- From: news [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jules Dubois Sent: Wednesday, 23 June 2004 7:20 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: moving to the 2.6 kernel?

The system doesn't survive the boot process. I've lost the error message, but it says something like "error: trying to kill init". My hand-crafted [sic] 2.6.7 kernel is almost completely functional; it's just that I couldn't figure out how to boot and/or configure the Debian kernel-image package. > Have you tried using "dmesg"?
