Hello all and happy New Year.

I downloaded 2.2.13 and did the following:-

Coppied the file into /tmp and ran gzip -cd linux-2.2.13.tar.gz | tar xfv -

This created a linux folder in /etc. I then renamed /usr/src/linux to
/usr/src/linux.old, and copied the /etc/linux folder to /usr/src.

Then I ran make dep, make bzImage, make modules, make modules_install and make
bzlilo.

This all seemed to go okay, there was some different stuff in the kernel so I
assumed it was the new kernel I was compiling.

Now when I boot the pc istill get kernel 2.2.10 at the login prompt, as well as
some stuff saying I'm running a 386 machine. I complied K6 support into the
kernel.

Is this normal, if so how do I know I have correctly compiled 2.2.13 ?

Thanks for any help.

Regards

Mark
