Hi all
 
I have attempted to upgrade SuSE 6 to Kernel 2.2.2 (PCPlus) and I have hit some problems...
 
After compiling kernel and re-booting I got message Symbol table has incorrect version number and Cannot find map file in boot log.  I fixed the Cannot find map file by using make bzlilo, but I still get Symbol table has incorrect version number...any ideas?  Not sure if make bzlilo worked okay anyway cuz I got:
 
open /boot/vmlinuz.old: No such file or directory
make [1]:*** [zlilo] Error 1
make [1]: Leaving directory /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot
make: *** [bzlilo] Error 2
 
The error from bzlilo seems strange cuz vmlinuz.old DOES NOT EXIST but in /etc/lilo.conf I have setup the original kernel 2.0.36 to /boot/vmlinuz.old and the new kernel 2.2.2 to /boot/vmlinuz and although vmlinuz.old is not in /boot, lilo does work and boot 2.0.36 (/boot/vmlinuz.old)?!
 
Also I moved 2.0.36 sources from /usr/src/linux to /linux-2.0.36 and then copied sources for 2.2.2 into /usr/src/linux.  The renamed 2.0.36 is displayed in white text (as it was when called /linux) and in KDE in italics is this some kind of symbolic link maybe to do with the above?
 
Other issues:
 
Printer does not work, yet I have complied everything for a paralled port printer (Canon BJC-250)
 
Freeing unused kernel memory: 36K freed....what does the mean, why does this message show on upgrading?
 
On command shutdown -h now everything under 2.2.2 seems the same as 2.0.36 but after System is Halted message, the message Master Resource Control: runlevel 0 has been reached...this did not appear under 2.0.36, is this part of kernel 2.2.2 upgrade or error?
 
CD is x24 speed and shows in boot log as x24 yet after ide0 and ide1 flash by it appears as x20?
 
Thats it!  Appreciate any advice, thanks in advance.
