I tried to build it the traditional way (make instead of make-kpkg kernel_image) and this seems to work. Here the Kernel image is placed in arch/powerpc/boot/ and not arch/ppc/bot/ It has been mentioned in this thread that there was a name change so I retried with make-kpkg --arch powerpc kernel_image but this seems to be ignored. Maybe the whole problem is #344833 or #342767. I'll retry with a newer kernel-package BTW, my selfcompilied kernel (with make not make-kpkg) doesn't boot. It fails with: VFS: Cannot open root device "hda6" or unknown block ... I don't use initrd (and never did) so I guess I forgot to activate an important option which prevents the kernel to read hda6. Any ideas? Any .config files for me which work with recent 2.6.17-rc kernels? > http://www.tgunkel.de/it/hardware/doc/ibook_g4_linux_data/ibook_g4_kernel_config2.txt regards Thorsten -- http://www.tgunkel.de -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
