https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=619754 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=619754#c57 --- Comment #57 from Thomas Renninger <trenn@novell.com> 2010-09-01 12:34:39 UTC --- Not sure I understand the problem. If you fill the KERNEL_VERSION= variable correctly, you just have to call the commands listed there, so you can more or less copy and paste this into the shell (if in the built kernel main directory): export KERNEL_VERSION="string in quotes from step 5." cp arch/x86/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz-$KERNEL_VERSION && \ cp System.map /boot/System.map-$KERNEL_VERSION mkinitrd -k vmlinuz-$KERNEL_VERSION -i initrd-$KERNEL_VERSION I'll attach a tiny shell script which I use for these steps. If you should have problems with above, call the script in the built kernel main directory and you get: - the modules installed - kernel and system map copied - initrd creation - boot entry in /boot/grub/menu.lst All you still have to do is to check whether the new kernel gets the default entry or you can choose the newly installed kernel manually on next boot.
Should there be any answers to the questions? I just hit enter and accepted the default. Yep, that should work out.
