I have tried to build an exact reproduction of the kernal distributed by SuSE following instructions in the Administration Guide. This produces a Kernal image that is much smaller than the original. Has anyone tried to build an exact reproduction of 8.1, 8.2 or 9.0 that results in the same file byte for byte. Is this even possible?
¿Which commands are you using to compile that kernel? Perhaps these: |After customizing the kernel configuration, start compilation by |entering: | | | earth :/usr/src/linux# make dep | earth :/usr/src/linux# make clean | earth :/usr/src/linux# make bzImage | There is one missing, before those: make cloneconfig which is crucial to reproduce the SuSE kernel. Then, I would highly recomend editing the Makefile and writing something to 'extraversion', like your initials: unless you do that, the original SuSE modules will be replaced by yours Neither of these two things are mentioned on the admin guide, and I don't know why. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
