Re: [LIH] kernel probs
Hi lilo.conf is a configuration file for LILO (LInux LOader), which is basically a boot manager for booting the OS of your choice (mmm.. Linux, I mean !). U need to run lilo after you've compiled a kernel so that next time you switch on your machine, the new kernel is booted. For running lilo, ensure that the lilo.conf is in proper location (normally /etc/lilo.conf) & simply type the command lilo & that should do. As for the module errors, have you run make modules make modules_install during the compilation of the kernel ? Ensure that you do this.

[LIH] kernel probs
hi listmem i attempted a kernel compilation went thru the whole process but on the last step i did not know what to do the lino.conf i compiled the whole stuff from /usr/src/linux dir. so i rebooted and to my surprise the booting process has now a penguin logo fonts have changed and i get many unresolved symbols for lib of different things (surely errors of some kind) would like to know what exactly to do with lilo.conf. and also for the errors if some thing could be done to resolve them. would it be better if i did a recompile lilo.conf still points to /vmlinuz, probably the one before compile so how did the boot process change i.e. fonts logo and lib errors. would be glad for detailed help. thanks in advance manish p.s rajesh F surely helped with some stuff. good pics :) _ Do You Yahoo!?

I think only recent 2.3.x kernels have PCMCIA in the base kernel. -Arun --- For information on this and other Linux India mailing lists check out http://lists.linux-india.org/
Re: [LIH] kernel probs
I think u didn't u didn't select the PCMCIA drivers while configuring the kernel. did u do a make config/menuconfig/xconfig, before compiling? and if u did do it, did u select the PCMCIA drivers in the config? u have to select the drivers as a module or inbuilt. do this and u shud be on u're way...

Hello folks Well, when I compiled the K 2.3.49, it does not seem to support pcmcia..Did i go horribly wrong somewhere??Since this is my first kernel compilw after 2.2.14, am completely at sea.Tried it twice but the problem persists.if it is a known problem, can someone point out a patch??
