Are you sure you were booting from LILO earlier? Could it have been GRUB that was booting your system. I have a nasty suspicion that it might have been GRUB. > and, for the sake of trying i rebooted after this.And > cudnot reboot.It > cudnt recognize the filesystem/partitions etc. What is the exact error message that you get? What all screens do you see after the boot process? *assuming you have grub installed* Grub will be able to load the new kernel. However, since you haven't done a make modules_install and a mkinitrd, your new kernel is booting up, but is not able to mount the root filesystem as the appropriate modules are not loaded. At grub boot prompt, you can ask grub to boot from the old kernel (there is a lot of documentation on grub- look for specifying the kernel image). Do that and then finish your new kernel installation - 1. do a make modules_install in your kernel src directory 2. do a mkinitrd <kernel version> initrdfile (or something like this) - to make an initrd image which will load the modules required at bootup (including filesystem modules) 3. (suggested) edit grub.conf and add both old/new kernel boot entries hope that helps regards ------------------------------------------------------ Shishir Birmiwal Engineer, Ittiam Systems (P) Ltd.
