Hi,
I have RedHat Linux 5.1 running on a Pentium 133 with version 2.0.34-0.6
kernel. I currently am running the kernel with module support and kerneld
managing them. That works fine. My problem is that I tried to recompile
the kernel to support a network card and it is giving me problems. When I
recompile the kernel using make zImage I don't get a zImage file in
linux/arch/i386/boot, I get vmlinux in linux/arch/i386/boot/compressed.
My first question: When I move that image to the /boot directory and
install it with lilo it doesn't boot. I get to my lilo prompt and choose
the new image and all it does is say booting..... and then redisplays
the lilo: prompt.
My second question: What does it mean when depmod -a returns messages about
unresolved symbols? The ones I am getting are below:
/lib/modules/2.0.34/misc/ipx.o: unresolved symbol(s)
/lib/modules/2.0.34/net/8390.o: unresolved symbol(s)
/lib/modules/2.0.34/net/ne2k-pci.o: unresolved symbol(s)
/lib/modules/2.0.34/net/dummy.o: unresolved symbol(s)
/lib/modules/2.0.34/net/ppp.o: unresolved symbol(s)
/lib/modules/2.0.34/ipv4/rarp.o: unresolved symbol(s)
These are all options which I want to compile into the kernel.
Last question: I have attached my rc.sysinit file. Can I take out the part
where it reconfigures the preferred like if I only want to boot one kernel
all the time?
