[opensuse] recompiling kernel
Hi! I decided to recompile my kernel (I have openSUSE 10.2 with kernel 2.6.18...). I say make xconfig make make install_modules make install After rebooting it failed to restart. Not only new kernel, but two old and failsafe. I've done something wrong? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Could you have overwritten the factory supplied kernel with your home-built version? Joe -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
If you mean in /boot, then no. There were lying old kernels and ramdisks. When booting it says: `VFS: Cannot open root device "hda6" or unknown-block(0,0)' P.S. There is one more thing. I am compiling in SUSE for the first time. And I didn't know that `make install' script creates ramdisk itself. So I tried to create it myself. To refresh me memory, I typed `mkinitrd' ... just to look it usage, like it was in redhat ... but it began to to something. I didn't understand what and how to use it ... so I've looked in to README.SUSE. And found out that ramdisk is already done by make. On 24/02/07, J Sloan <joe@tmsusa.com> wrote:
