Hello
I am trying to build a kernel with suse, i've used this technique on other distros and I don't know why it does work here. I am wondering if I have an in complete setup or I am simply missing a step.
1. Fresh Install 2. cd /usr/src/linux 3. make oldconfig 4. make 5. make init 6. make modules 7. make modules_install 8. make install 9. reboot
The result is that the system will boot, but the kernel can not read the filesystem.
FWIW, once this works, I will do a few more things with the system where I build a out of tree driver. I figure if my driver is failing, I should probably try to build the kernel as-is under non-modified setup.
Any response appreciated.
John F. Davis Hi Follow Larry Finger's tip in this thread about compiling the kernel. It works a treat :) http://forums.opensuse.org/pre-release-beta/421320-questions-help-regarding-...
