Hi Wodzu, This is actually quite simple. The context of your errormessage is that it can not mount your root file system. Please do read: /usr/share/.../kernel-package/Howto-2.6??....gz In general I don't know the exact location of the files/doc's anymore. But do a search with: find / -name '*kernel*'-print |grep package
And check: http://kerneltrap.org/node/799 http://myrddin.org/howto/debian-kernel-recompile.php http://www.google.nl/search?hl=nl&q=2.6+kernel+compiling+debian&meta= have fun, marvilleke --- Wodzu Wodzowski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hy. > I tried to compile and install a kernel, and I made > kernel package (2.6.14.191105_i386.deb)> Everything > seemed to be ok, so I used 'dpkg -i > kernel-image....... and got a message that > everything is ok.
