But the modules aren't the same when I type make oldconfig onto .config ? If yes, the .img file should be the same for the new kernel, shouldn't be? The only way the recompilation worked was doing the following: cp /boot/config... /usr/src/linux/.config make oldconfig make make modules_install make install But before (when I had Windows XP installed together), I did: cp /boot/config... /usr/src/linux/.config make oldconfig make make modules_install cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot vi grub.conf (changes only in the kernel image) and everything worked fine... now, I really don't know what happened to be different! Anyway, thanks all. --- "Perera, Nelanka" <Nelanka.Perera@xxxxxx> escreveu: > I've noticed that even if you compile in some of the > features that are > needed at boot time like raid1, ext[23]fs, etc, that > the kernel will not > load properly.
