You did run make install? Do you have a custom install script in
/sbin/installkernel?

The vmlinux you see is the uncompressed kernel. If you compiled with
make bzImage, zImage, etc the resulting compressed kernel is at
arch//boot/. You then either run make install or 
cp ./System.map arch//boot/ /boot

The vmlinux you see is the uncompressed kernel. If you compiled with
make bzImage, zImage, etc the resulting compressed kernel is at
arch/your arch/boot/. You then either run make install or 
cp ./System.map arch/your arch/boot/kernel /boot

kernel still resides in the root

2001-07-02 Thread Blesson Paul

Hi
I just completed the full compilation. But there is one still
missing factor. I uncommented the INSTALL_PATH=/boot. But still the vmlinux
still resides in the directory where i compiled the kernel. Why is it so. What
to do if the kernel should be present in the boot directory.
