Just a guess, since I'm not building a 2.6 kernel, but... I just went through this yesterday with a 2.4 kernel I had to patch. I started with Debian's config, make-kpkg yadda yadda, kernel panic. The stock config builds everything in the world as modules. It requires an initrd or some config tweaking to boot. Since twiddling everything necessary to get up and going without an initrd can be time-consuming, I opted to just make-kpkg --initrd yadda yadda and go that route. -- Michael McIntyre ---- Silvan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Linux fanatic, and certified Geek; registered Linux user #243621 http://www.geocities.com/Paris/Rue/5407/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
