Hi ... I'm trying to compile the new kernel 2.4.14 (from www.kernel.com), but there are a lot of options that I don't know, like CONFIG_MATH_EMULATION CONFIG_TCIC etc etc so, where or how I can see the current kernel options (2.4.3 ...) -- Rodrigo Want to buy

[expert] kernel compiling

is there some program that compiles the kernel source and produces the vmlinuz and initrd files that the regular kernel has? I've followed the directions in the readme file and end up with a bzImage file. There are instructions for making an initrd file from scratch but surely there must be

I haven't kept up with the recent developments, but in the old days, one would only need the .config file that is used to make the kernel that is shipped with the distribution. Is this available somewhere? -sen pablito writes: is there some program that compiles the kernel source and

Re: [expert] kernel compiling

if you download/installed the Mandrake kernel source rpm, the .config file used to build that kernel is there. its quite interesting to know what is enabled/disabled by default by MDK. but if you download the kernel source from kernel.org, you will have to build .config yourself... i usually

Re: [expert] kernel compiling

as far as i know, the .config file of any kernel that you build yourself as a user will always be found in /usr/src/linux, not in any directory. this is overwritten everytime you 'make config' or 'make menuconfig' so the backup (of config file) should be safe somewhere else. --- Tzafrir Cohen

nope I do all this, then I do the 'make modules' and get... [root@yardath linux]$make modules make -C kernel CFLAGS=-D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.4.3/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -march=i586 -DMODULE -DMODVERSIONS -include
