Dear all, I was afraid to update to a newer kernel with all the messages that the system won't boot but I am taking a risk. I have downloaded 2.6.11.7.tar.bz2 and extracted it. I read the README and have done the following: make mrproper make xconfig make dep make clean make bzImage What else do i need to do? I am still running 2.6.9-1.667. I need to manually edit /boot/grub.conf to put the new kernel. What advice can you give me? Do I need to do a modules install? or something like that. I appreciate all the help that you can provide. Thanks, Antonio __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
