I'm building 2.6.12 kernels for my own machine. Two things are rather
problematical:
The content of .config looks like a Makefile snippet. If it is one, can
I add to it the values I want for CC & CFLAGS so they are tied to a
particular build configuration when I need to re-do it?
and
The "official" kernel images are all built with initrd. My build
complains about the size (number of blocks) in the initrd fs. Where is
the parameter to create a smaller number of larger "disks" in the initrd fs?
Aw, heck! I might as well add the third -- Why my non-initrd kernel
won't boot?
It panics with Cannot open root device on (3,01), please specify a
correct root.
My lilo.conf indeed says root=/dev/hda1 which is correct.
