It's absurd to describe Fedora-4 as "bleeding edge".

I have quite a lot of sympathy with the OP
(though he could have described his problem more precisely).
Whoever is responsible for new Fedora kernels
tries to do far too much,
adding entirely unnecessary "improvements" to grub.conf .

It would be much better if he/she just installed the kernel
in the standard way with "make install",
and left it as an extra option for grub.

Actually, I don't understand why people find the Fedora kernels
so attractive.
They are rarely any improvement on the standard kernels
from http://www.kernel.org .



I've posted about this before, without any replies, so here I go again ...

I have been unable to get a kernel.org kernel to run correctly on FC4. The same kernel configuration works fine on FC3. The last kernel I tried was 2.6.12.5.

I'd appreciate any tips you might have for getting a stock kernel running.

Thanks,

John
