The documentation that I have (I don't know where from) tells that 1) prior to do "make (menu)config" you should remove some remote links (I am sorry, but I don't have the information here) 2) After "make zImage" the new kernel resides in ... arch/i386/boot/zImage. Lilo however, is told that the file /vmlinuz contains the kernel. Therefore you should make a symbolic link of the kernel file to /vmlinuz before running Lilo, e.g. do $ cp /boot/vmlinuz /boot/oldkernel $ cp arch/i386/boot/zImage /boot/vmlinuz $ rm /vmlinuz $ ln -s /boot/vmlinuz /vmlinuz $ /sbin/lilo I hope this is of help. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
