Hi all I've just downloaded the brand new 2.4 pre8 kernel. I configured this like I did the same way I dit with the 2.2.14 kernel. The only new thing I did whas to enable the processor Winchip C6, which I thought I had installed. But When I try to boot the kernel with loadlin: c:\loadlin\loadlin c:\loadlin\bzImage4 root=/dev/hdb11 mem=73278 it doesn't get loaded. Sometimes it hangs in the decompression phase ( the little points on the screen in te 3th row) One time this succeeded, bus the next warnig was bad gzip or magic number. I know loadlin has a sort of debug mode, the -d, or -t flag. I used the -d flag, ant this doesn't give a faulty kernel message o.i.d. What is the right command to compile the kernel? I use make dep clean modules modules_install bzImage followed with the command depmod -a Can anybody give me a cleu?

bad gzip or magic number.

What is the right command to compile the kernel? I use
make dep clean modules modules_install bzImage
make dep clean bzImage modules modules_install I don't know if that will solve your decompression problem but I think that it's better to compile the kernel before the modules. (somebody correct me if I'm wrong)
followed with the command
depmod -a
Can anybody give me a cleu?
Thanks in advance
