Hello
i have just set up ubunut 8.04 with two kernels 2.6.24.16 and 2.6.24.19.
For my project i have to implement MPLS_linux module ,so i got kernel source release 2.6.15.1 then i patch it with the module above then i followed the steps of configuration ,compilation and install with the commands bellow :
make menuconfig
make && make mudules && make modules_install && make instal
so the following files were created in /boot:
config-2.6.15.1
System.map-2.6.15.1
vmlinux-2.6.15.1
for the initrd file i created it manually with the commande :
mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd-2.6.15.1 2.6.15.1
so the file initrd-2.6.15.1 was addes in the /boot .
when i dispaly /boot/grub/menu.list it gives:

Now ,for 1 week of research i was really obligated to write u this msg for help ,because i have just 2 weeks to get back a report while i m blocking in the first steps .
i will be very gratuful if u can help me it s really urgent
exuse me for my bad english
thank you

Every thing seems to be ok. I doubt U haven't selected the required modules when u done make menuconfig. Instead try to use the current kernel configuration by typing make defconfig

thank u .
i can t choose default configuration because i have to specify a configuration i have found in this site abt MPLS_linux:
http://www.elcom.pub.ro/~adrian.popa...tallation.html

other suggestions will be welcome
thank u
