This is my first time doing a kernel upgrade The Debian Way(tm). I am running sid on a Celeron system and am trying to upgrade from a 2.2.18 kernel to a 2.4.17.
I downloaded the 2.4.17 tarball from kernel.org, and did the following: make clean make xconfig make-kpkg kernel_image cd .. dpkg -i linux-2.4.17(plus extensions).deb I then fixed LILO to see the new kernel, and rebooted. It worked, but for some reason my modules (eg, my soundcard and my ethernet card drivers) are not available. Did I miss something? Is there an equivalent to make modules and make modules_install that I'm missing? I expected the make-kpkg to automate the modules. Thanks for any help. -- James Lindenschmidt [EMAIL PROTECTED]
