Hi! I'm a student working my assignment on Linux and so far I have a great time.. thanks to you guys! I need to compile and test new kernels as an exercise. However, for some damn reason when I compile the new kernel using my basic config. or other configs. the new kernel fails to boot! I have not yet brought * ANY * changes to the kernel yet... I just tried to test the compilation process of the kernel sources (installed from the Linux CD and on my HDD). The stages of 'make config' (using xconfig, oldconfig, config),'make dep', ' make bzImage'and then a 'make bzdisk' works fine. But when the machine reboots from this disk, the kernel uncompresses successfully and then when it reaches the 'Press I for ineractive startup' everything freezes! And when I boot using my original boot diskette, everything's fine again! Can you PLEASE HELP ME and tell me what to do! Thank you!
