Get the sources 2.4.1 from a Mirror of www.kernel.org and follow the kernel-howto from LDP, which is very good. If you don't know about all featuers, then its likely you will compile more than once ;-) Just run make xconfig; make dep, make clean, make bzdisk (!) - you can try your new kerlnel from the floppy, before you install it. Before you run make modules modules_install. And you need modutils - package from testing. On my system 2.4.1 runs perfect, If you do it the way I suggest (and the HOWTO;-), you don't need to be arfaid to harm the system. And you'll learn a lot of Linux by compiling your own kernel. martin Morten Bo Johansen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> on 07.02.2001 13:42:21 An: Debian Users <debian-user@lists.debian.org> Kopie: (Blindkopie: Martin Tanzer/dvs/DE) Blindkopie: Martin Tanzer/dvs/DE Thema: Potato and kernel 2.4
I was wondering if anyone could provide me with a link explaining the steps one needs to take to install a 2.4 kernel on a potato system. I suppose that several packages (e.g. pppd) need to be updated to get a functioning system.. Thanks -- "All truths are half-truths."
