Did you copy the new vmlinuz *over* the old (you should)..after making a copy of the original to, say, vmlinuz.old... Cliff
Kernel image installed. Now what?
Hello everyone, I did an apt-get of the 2.2.19 kernel image .deb package and installed it. I went through the prompts, rebooted, and did a modconf. Still one problem - my system still says I have 2.2.10 installed. I checked my LILO.conf, changed the image= line to the vmlinuz-2.2.19 file and the map= line to System.map-2.2.19 or something like that. I rebooted again. I did the uname command - still the same information: 2.2.10. I thought I upgraded my kernel. The new 2.2.19 binaries are in the /boot directory. What's going here? How do I get the debian packages to install and implement correctly? Or is the system information I'm getting bogus? How do I know if I really installed 2.2.19? Thanks for considering this matter.

Did you run lilo after you made this change, before you rebooted?

Re: Kernel image installed. Now what?
Yes, always rerun lilo after changing lilo.conf. Otherwise the changes to the .conf won't be written to your MBR On August 16, 2001 05:50 pm, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Tom Massey writes: Did you run lilo after you made this change, before you rebooted?
