[newbie] New kernel on the boot floppy
Hi. I have a few questions... 1. I am an experienced Debian user trying out mandrake. I have a motherboard with promise 66 off board controller. That controller/mobo combination requires a custom kernel that's been correctly patched in order to work. With Debian, I simply use the custom kernel replacement utility that comes with Debian's boot floppy set to make sure that my custom kernel replaces the Debian stock kernel. That kernel replacer ensures that everything still works on the boot floppy set. How do I replace the kernel on the mandrake floppy to make sure that everything works correctly? 2. Also, Debian has a kernel building package that creates a custom debian package with the hardware optimized kernel and the correct modules. Installing this custom debian package lets all the other packages that want to know about the kernel know all the correct compatibility information. How do I create a custom kernel package with Redhat/Mandrake that also updates all the other packages that want to know about the kernel?
