Dale, If you've never gotten genkernel to work, you should try this little script that I've used for the past few years. I put it in /usr/src/gk and I change into whatever /usr/src/kernel directory I'm going to compile. Then, I just call "../gk all" and off it goes. Of course, if you use lilo, it's a different story because I jumped out of the lilo life raft years ago and managed to swim to shore. Here's gk. Tweak to your environment: CFLAGS="-O2 -march=barcelona -pipe" \ genkernel --lvm --menuconfig --save-config --oldconfig \ --bootloader=grub --install --symlink --kerneldir=$PWD \ --makeopts="-s -j4" "$@" -- Bill
