I've pulled the subject package down, unpacked it, then
ln -s /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.0-test5 /usr/src/linux; cd /usr/src/linux
make dep; make bzImage
make modules; make modules-install
make install
now, during the make boot stage, I get
ld -m elf_i386 -Ttext 0x1000 -e startup_32 -o vmlinux head.o misc.o piggy.o
make[2]: Leaving directory
`/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.0-test5/arch/i386/boot/compressed'
objcopy -O binary -R .note -R .comment -S compressed/vmlinux compressed/vmlinux.out
tools/build bootsect setup compressed/vmlinux.out CURRENT > zImage
Root device is (3, 1)
Boot sector 512 bytes.
Setup is 2360 bytes.
System is 774 kB
System is too big. Try using bzImage or modules.
make[1]: *** [zImage] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.0-test5/arch/i386/boot'
make: *** [boot] Error 2
since I both used modules, and made a bzImage, I'm confused. And to top
it off, apt-get update returns Memory fault. I'm at a loss; is there a
byhand way to cause the new kernel to boot next? Is it as simple as
rm /vmlinuz;ln /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.0-test5 /vmlinuz
?? TIA for any clues for the clueless.
