Yes, I'm using an initrd.
The top of the makefile looks like this:
VERSION = 2
PATCHLEVEL = 6
SUBLEVEL = 8
EXTRAVERSION = .1-Win4Lin
NAME=Zonked Quokka
make modules_install puts the modules here:
/lib/modules/2.6.8.1-Win4Lin
I make the initrd like this:
mkinitrd -f /boot/initrd-2.6.8.1-Win4Lin.img 2.6.8.1
I put the kernel and System.map here:
/boot/bzImage-2.6.8.1-Win4Lin
/boot/System.map-2.6.8.1-Win4Lin
ln -s /boot/System.map-2.6.8.1-Win4Lin /boot/System.map
GRUB entry looks like this:
title Test Kernel
root (hd0,0)
kernel /bzImage-2.6.8.1-Win4Lin ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet
initrd /initrd-2.6.8.1-Win4Lin.img
Here's what I get when it boots:
jdb: version magic '2.6.8.1 K7 gcc-3.3' should be '2.6.8.1-Win4Lin K7 gcc-3.3'
