Hello SuSErs, I'm trying to learn how to compile my own kernel. I currently have a stock 6.4 installed. I am trying to compile kernel linux-2.2.16.SuSE-21. I can get it to boot up, but every time it boots I get three types of error messages: 1) something about it can't find char-major-4; 2) devpts on /dev/pts failed; and 3) can't locate module snd-card-sb16. All of these messages fly past so fast I may not have them down exact, and the error messages are not in dmesg. When I look in the /lib/modules/2.2.16/misc folder, there are no snd-card modules like there are in the /lib/modules/2.2.14/misc folder. That seems strange to me. My sound card is a ISA PNP Soundblaster 16. I'm using it in the non-ISA mode, for NT on my system. Can anybody help, I'd like to learn how to sucessfully compile kernels.
