i am not able to compile a kernel 2.6.29.1 on fedora14.
hi friends,
i was trying to install kernel 2.6.29.1 on fedora 14 but it is giving error.
First download a package with kernel and i saved in home/user/linux.
Afterwards i can extract this package.
1.tar -xvzf linux-2.6.29.1 -C /usr/src
2.cd /usr/src/linux-2.6.29.1/
3.make menuconfig
4.make
5.make modules_install
6.make install
after above steps i got this error.
ERROR: modinfo: could not find module ip6t_REJECT
ERROR: modinfo: could not find module nf_conntrack_ipv6
ERROR: modinfo: could not find module ip6table_filter
ERROR: modinfo: could not find module ip6_tables
ERROR: modinfo: could not find module ipv6
ERROR: modinfo: could not find module fuse
however it gives initramfs,vmlinuz-2.6.29.1 and System.map-2.6.29.1 in /boot folder and menu.lst in /boot/grub is updating according to new kernel.
when i reboot my machine and selects the kernel 2.6.29.1 it shows
FATAL:kernel too old
[1.591633] Kernel panic-not syncing:Attempted to kill init
I have taken my start up initrd and it is not booting...
again same error
i have checked the file system macros in .config files all are looking fine,even it is installing the modules related to file system.
is it possible that gcc (GCC) 4.5.1 20100924 is creating some problem??

It's worth mentioning that you are doing a kernel in fedora. Did you download the Fedora kernel source, or Linus' kernel source? Fedora has a few megs of patches onto your standard kernel, which between them probably do something
