Does the box work with the stock RedHat SMP i586 kernels? If so then you may be choosing a combination of config options that doesn't work well together.
I have this problem myself quite a lot. What I usually do is load the /boot/config-* for the RedHat stock kernel that works in make xconfig. Then I just try a compiling in a few things and removing a few things and saving the config and then trying to boot off of that. If it works then I save the kernel in grub and rebuild again, this time removing a little more. As far as the depmod warnings about Unresolved Symbols.... If insmod loads them and they work without a problem don't worry about it. (Unless it just really bothers you that you get warned) On Wed, 2002-12-11 at 12:44, Søren Neigaard wrote: > Posted once before, but nobody noticed it, so here goes again :) > > I have an old IBM PC Server 520 with 2 P133 processors.
