[S.u.S.E. Linux] SuSE Kernel
Hi, it's me again. I am used to Slackware which was a good distirbution but i decided to try something different so I chose SuSE. Now in Slackware there was a kernel package that you had to compile the things you wanted.. how does the kernel in SuSE work? is it al modules? or is there a pckage that i need to d/l? please clue me in .. i am a .. well not a newbie but a novice .. so pleae help me.. thanx..

The kernel sources are located in /usr/src/linux, where linux is a symlink pointing to the actual directory in /usr/src that the kernel sources you want to use are in. The current SuSE 2.0.33 kernel sources are package lx_suse, and install to /usr/source/linux-2.0.33.SuSE. If those are the sources you are using, just make sure that /usr/src/linux points to /usr/source/linux-2.0.33.SuSE and compile away. Chilini wrote:

<PRE> SuSE provides a list of kernels during install that has support for certain cards/configurations. You'd chose the one that suited you best. Want something that SuSE doesn't have in the list, you'd have to chose the closest one, make sure you install the lx_suse package along with gcc, make and the other development packages and then proceed to compile your own kernel.

Chili, Remember---Linux is Linux. The suse distrib has little bearing on the kernel compilation or loading modules. On the other hand, I must say yast does a nice job of walking us through the process of loading modules. -Netsomnia > Date: Tue, 30 Jun 1998 12:30:23 -0500 (CDT) > From: Chilini <chilini@inlink.com> > how does the kernel in SuSE work? is it al modules? or is there a pckage > that i need to d/l? please clue me in .. - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
