I used to be able to modify and compile a working kernel.

Using L-M 8.0 and previous versions

BEFORE with an AMD K6-2 500 with 192 Megs od PC100 Memory - modify the
kernel to use this CPU and change a few settings. Compile and install. No
problems.

BEFORE with an AMD Duron 750 upgrade, with mother board and 256 Megs of
PC133 memory. (I won a Lotto prize. ;-) and supplied Kernel-2.4.3-20mdk.
No problems.

AFTER.I modify Kernel-2.4.3-20mdk, using the .config that is in
/usr/src/linux, and ONLY change the i586 CPU to reflect the new i686 CPU. 

Make Menuconfig, save changes, make dep, make bzImage, make modules, make
modules_install. Cp /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage to
/root/vmlinuz-2.4.3-20.mdk.i686. Rm vmlinuz. Make vmlinuz > to the new
kernel. Move new System.map to /boot and rename to
System.map-2.4.3-20mdk.i686. Rm System.map link and make a new link to
point to the new map. Lilo -v as root.

Reboot. Supermount is gone. the drives that fstab pointed to with
supermount, setup when I first installed L-M 8.0,  can not be seen. My
network card is 'lost' and several other things don't work.

So tell me what I am doing incorectly? Or has something changed that I am
not aware of for this Kenrel-2.4.3?
