Ughh, just run an additional command ( after youve installed bin86 re previous email)
make install does the work of copying and running lilo at the end..... Id suggest you modify "/etc/lilo.conf" to also point to a known working kernel and have a resue disk and maybe even a boot disk handy. They come in handy when things dont work out as expected Ummm, speaking from personal experience of course cheers Beavis wrote: > i am trying to compile the kernel 2.2.14 on to my i386 machine > please help if u can, thnakx > > update: > > after doing make bzImage, it starts to compile, which takes about 10 mins or > so right. > then at the end it says: > > as86 -0 -a -o bbootsect.o bbootsect.s > make[1]: as86: Command not found > make[1]: *** [bbootsect.o] Error 127 > make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-2.2.14/arch/i386/boot' > make: *** [bzImage] Error 2 > > why is this happening? > i went over a redid the make menuconfig and even checked to make sure it > saved properly .config in /usr/src/linux-2.2.14 > > > this is what i am doing: > > > > > > >Once that is all done and you choose "Exit" and save your config file, > you > > must >run make dep followed by make clean.
