Hi,
I read susefaq and in this lists that I should do make cloneconfig dep clean bzlilo modules modules_install, but when I try to make cloneconfig, I got this errors. I got this kernel from ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/kraxel/i386/i586/
arz:/usr/src/linux # make cloneconfig
There is no cloneconfig in the 2.6 kernels. Just do
zcat /proc/config.gz > /usr/src/linux/.config
that's all you need, no make dep or anything
I too want to try the 2.6 kernel on my SUSE 9.0 installation. Having never compiled a kernel before, would it be possible for someone to post a 'walk through' as to the steps as to how to best do this in SUSE? For example, let's say I download a kernel from kernel.org (my machine is a P4 2.8MHz). Which kernel (preferably 2.6.3 variety) should I grab and what commands should I use to compile it for my box? I understand that the 'how' has changed somewhat since the 2.4 kernels. I'd like to have the stock 2.4.21 kernel available in case something goes wrong. I know it's asking a lot, but I'd really like to learn how to do this without messing up my only machine. Thanks a lot! -- Cheers, Trey --- Do not seek death; death will find you.
