I have run into a bit of a problem when compiling the test kernel under potato. When I make zImage it runs all the way to the end and then crashes after reporting that the system is to large. Yet the size it reports is actualy smaller than that of the current kernel (The default for potato). Has any one else run into this problem? Or am I doing something stupid. The exact step I have used (which work with 2.2.x) are as follows: cd /usr/src/linux make mrproper make menuconfig make dep make clean make zImage
And here it crashes. Ive tried bzImage and it runs to completion, but for some unkown reason it want run(I even tried bzlilo but it just wont boot). If you have any idea how i can get things working I would be much appreciated.
