However, a recent woody install I did with the 2.2 kernel, and later
installed 2.4, only seems to have the one map= line- and IIRC both
kernels boot cleanly.  It is NOT an SMP machine however.

Re: /etc/lilo.conf and system.map mismatches -- my syntax ?

2003-12-04 Thread Theodore Knab
I have a 'map=' parameter, but when I use 2 kernels of the same stock as 
in the full lilo.conf below the wrong system.map file is being loaded.

For example, it seems that the xfs kernel loads the system-2.4.10 system map
file rather than the one I want it to load, which is the
'/boot/system-2.4.19-xfs2' file.

Is my syntax wrong ?

/boot/system-2.4.19
/boot/system-2.4.19-xfs2

System.map-2.2.19
System.map-2.4.19-xfs2
System.map-2.4.22

Try putting the map=... Line in the specific to kernel section.

" map=/boot/map "
Is this the way it looks in your lilo.conf file?

Hope this does the trick.

/etc/lilo.conf and system.map mismatches

2003-12-02 Thread Theodore Knab
I was wondering if someone knew how to avoid system.map mismatch errors
when building 2 or more kernels from the same version.

Could someone look at my inserted the lilo.conf and file names and tell me if 
I have some type of formatting error ?

The kernel documention recommends that SMP users compile
2 kernels. The documentation recommends that one contains SMP support
while the other should be in-case SMP does not work with the hardware.

Reference from $my-kernel/Documentation/smp.txt:
If you are using LILO, it is handy to have both SMP and non-SMP
kernel images on hand. Edit /etc/lilo.conf to create an entry
for another kernel image called "linux-smp" or something.

Like the SMP recommendation, when I compile new stuff in I build a kernel
without the extra modules, just in-case. For example, I have an xfs-kernel and a non 
xfs
kernel.

The last time I built 2 kernels of the same version I got system map mismatch errors
after running system commands like ps.

Is there something wrong with the file format I am using for my kernel ?

My /etc/lilo.conf looks like this: 

lba32
boot=/dev/sda1
root=/dev/sda5
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
timeout=100
delay=100
prompt
vga=normal
default=Linux

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.19-xfs2 
  label=Linux
  read-only

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.19
label=failsafe
read-only

My files boot partition looks for this 2.4.19 kernel looks like this:

/boot/vmlinux-2.4.19
/boot/System.map-2.4.19

/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.19-xfs
/boot/System.map-2.4.19-xfs
