--- Comment #9 from Takashi Iwai
I'm not a kernel developer, but I tried to bisect.
However after:
make make install grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
and reboot I was not able to start that kernel it crashed. Also 'make install' told me I need a initrd ...
So did make make install make modules_install mkinitrd
Now even a normal SUSE kernel doesn't boot anymore. Please provide better instructions. I'm going to try to fix my system now ...
Sorry, I overlooked your inquiry! Too bad that it didn't work easily. I attach below two scripts I often use for myself; the first one is to install a self-made kernel. Just run the script on the kernel tree you built, then it'll include the kernel, System.map and modules, update bootloader, etc. You'd need to pass -f option if the kernel was already installed and you want to just update / re-install the same kernel version. Another one is to remove the installed kernels and modules. Just pass the kernel version-release string, or pass the file name /boot/vmlinuz-4.4.x-xyz, then the script will guess and remove the corresponding ones. Last but not least: don't forget to change CONFIG_LOCALVERSION in your .config after running make localmodconfig. The point is to install a different kernel flavor so that the original kernel is kept intact. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
