Hello everyone,

I wanted to upgrade form Linux-2.6.15-52-386 kernel to vanila Linux-2.6.33.2
kernel from kernel.org. I compiled and installed kernel with defualt
configurion (except for disabling booting from NFS)

Steps for compiling kernel:

$make menuconfig   --- to disable booting form NFS
$make
$make modules
$make modules_install
$make install

$cd /boot/
$mkinitramfs -o initrd.img-2.6.33.2 2.6.33.2




Following is a list of messages that I get when I try boot with new kernel:

modeprobe: FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.33.2/modules.dep: No such
file or directory.

WARNING: Couldn't open directory /lib/modules/2.6.33.2: No such file or
directory

FATAL: Could not open /lib/modules/2.6.33.2/modules.dep.temp for writing: No
such file or directory.

ALERT!: /dev/hda1 does not exists. Dropping to a Shell!

I'm trying all this on sun virtual box. My Linux-2.6.15-52-386 still works
well.

Following are grub entries:
title           Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.33.2
root           (hd0, 0)
kernel        /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.33.2  root=/dev/hda1 ro  quiet splash
initrd          /boot/initrd.img-2.6.33.2
savedefault
boot

Please help!
