I am working with a SuSE 6.4 stock kernel 2.2.14.
In order to learn how to compile and introduce a new kernel, I am compiling a
2.2.18 one. I made menuconfig, compilation and installation went OK. But: the
new kernel does not work. My feeling is, that existing "/etc/rc.config" and the
new kernel dont match. ( I started the compilation with a minimal configuration,
and the result was a lot of failed services after booting, like i4l_hardware,
nfsserver, mysoundon,ethernet etc ) I did'nt put these services in menuconfig
of the new kernel, so I presume they come from "rc.config". How is the normal
procedure to compile a new kernel without_interfeering with the
configuration of the existing one ? I did not find any hints in all the papers
and books I revised. Thanks for help in advance.
