Hello SuSE folks,
Running 8.0 Just did an upgrade of my kernel to 2.4.19
...............<snip a lot of previous stuff>.........
Did you use a SuSE kernel (rpm) for the upgrade or did you build one yourself?
It is a SuSE rpm downloaded from their 8.1 repository. (k 5deflt_2.4.19-110_i586.rpm)
Could you post a listing of /boot, the contents of lilo.conf and the output of 'rpm -qpl k_deflt_2.4.19-110_i586.rpm |grep boot' ?
OK Theo, this is what I have. -------------------------------------------------------------- /boot: System.Map-2.4.19-4GB boot.0300 boot.0341 initrd initrd.shipped lilo.log map map2 message *vmlinuz.gz vmlinuz vmlinuz.autoconf.h vmlinuz.config vmlinuz.shipped vmlinuz.version.h ------------------------------------------ lilo.config: boot = /dev/hda change-rules reset read-only menu-scheme = Wg:kw:Wg:Wg lba32 prompt timout = 80 message = /boot/message image = /boot/vmlinuz label = linux root = /dev/hdb1 vga = 781 initrd = /boot/initrd append = "hdc=ide-scsi" image = /boot/vmlinuz.suse label = failsafe root = /dev/hdb1 vga = 791 initrd = /boot/initrd.suse append = "ide=nodma apm=off acpi=off hdc=ide-scsi" optional other = /dev/hda1 label = windows (and, of course, I deleted the memtest lines to make it boot) ------------------------------------------------------ The result of the "rpm -qpl k%5deflt_2.4.19-110_i586.rpm | grep boot" produced a "no such directory or file". (Tried many times in different variations) FYI the kernel was installed using "apt-get install k_deflt" which it obtains from the official SuSE gwdg.de repository.
If it is an official SuSE kernel then it should have the vmlinuz.suse file, otherwise (like the Mantel kernels) probably not. The rpm shouldn't delete memtest though, it's hard to believe it did.
Hope this can help a little bit. Don't know why I can't grep that rpm. Bob S.
