Hi,
No ! Never upgrade your kernel by « rpm -U ». You will erase the old
kernel and if the new doesn't work your computer can not boot.
Always use «

This may seem like an obvious question but did you remember to run
make modules and then make modules_install? I just recompiled the
same kernel and forgot to do those and it stopped at the same point
for me. Also the Install file mentioned something about removing a
preferred file in /lib/mod
No I didn't. Since it wasn't mentioned in the previous email, I thought
the rpm's took care of it. Or am I wrong here?

Yes you need to run make modules and also make modules_install after the
make zImage is finished. I do not believe the RPMs take care of this
because they do not know which modules you are going to use and which are
being compiled etc...

When using the kernel RPMs, the make modules (etc.) are not needed,
because you don't actually build the kernel--you

Actually, the RPM kernel upgrades do take care of that. The process is similar
when you first install Mandrake. You did not have to compile a kernel then.
Most probably, the new modules that come with the kernel have problems with
your hardware, probably the sound card.

this with other operating systems after major upgrades, which is what you
have with new kernel.
