Er, I don't know if you want to do what you think you want to do. :) To answer your original question, no you found the only one, but what _really_ matters is where lilo thinks the kernel is. Wherever you put it and your system map (also generated when you compile the kernel) make sure to edit /etc/lilo.conf and then RUN /sbin/lilo BEFORE you reboot. might want to test the files to make sure they are where you think, too.
BUT, you might be a little confused. /boot _is_ the "standard" place to put kernels which are compiled.../usr/src/linux is the standard place to put kernel _source_ that you are working with (hence the "src"). Of course, you can put your images anywhere you want, but I would keep them in /boot unless you know what you are doing. --adam b. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <debian-user@lists.debian.org> Sent: Saturday, July 21, 2001 1:29 PM Subject: Building kernel in new dir. > I'm working on building a new kernel (just realized my newly 'bought' debian > 2.2r3 has kernel 2.2 not 2.4 for some reason).
