Hi,
I want to upgrade the default kernel (2.4.7-10, rpm) to 2.4.17 (tar.bz2)
but my pc doesn't agree me .... I mean:
bunzip2 linux-2.4.17.tar.bz2
tar xvf linux-2.4.17.tar into /usr/local
then I move the linux dir into /usr/src
/usr/src/> chown -R root.root linux-2.4.17
/usr/src/> ln -s linux-2.4.17 linux
/usr/include/ rm -rf asm; rm -rf linux; rm -rf scsi
/usr/src/> ln -s /usr/src/linux/include/asm-i386 /usr/include/asm
/usr/src/> ln -s /usr/src/linux/include/linux /usr/include/linux
/usr/src/> ln -s /usr/src/linux/include/scsi /usr/include/scsi
/usr/src/> cd linux
/usr/src/linux> make mrproper;make xconfig;make dep;make clean;make
bzImage;make modules;make modules_install
(no errors)
/usr/src/linux> cp System.map /boot/System.map-2.4.17
/usr/src/linux> cp /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage
/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.17
/boot/> ln -sf System.map-2.4.17 System.map
/boot/> ln -sf vmlinuz-2.4.17 vmlinuz
/boot/> rm map
vi /etc/lilo.conf and I change it as follow:
prompt
timeout=00
default=linux
boot=/dev/hda4
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
message=/boot/message
lba32
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label=linux
read-only
root=/dev/hda4
append="hdb=ide-scsi"
> lilo -v
Reading boot sector from /dev/hda4
Merging with /boot/boot.b
Mapping message file /boot/message
Boot image: /boot/vmlinuz
Added linux *
/boot/boot.0304 exists - no backup copy made.
Writing boot sector.
/boot/map has been created again and @System.map, @vmlinuz point to 2.4.17
versions.
but when I reboot, my pc linux still uses 2.4.7-10 (I've also tryed to
rename System.map-2.4.7-10 and vmlinuz-2.4.7-10 to System.map-2.4.7-10_old
and vmlinuz-2.4.7-10_old but no way)
What is going on?
Thanks in advance
Massimo
