Kernel dependencies question
I recently compiled a new 2.6.1 kernel but it wasn't working properly. There's no sound,mouse doesn't work,doesn't mount the harddrives and who knows what else. I think all of these aspects i compiled as modules so I think I need "moudle init tools".(Is it true)
If I install the new version will my old kernel(the one I am currently using still be able to load modules with the new version? If it can't is there some way I can direct it to the old tools? Thanks Bye |
installing it should give you problems with old modules. and yes u need it for 2.6 kernels, you might have to upgrade other packages as well. Read the kernel requierments carefully.
|
I will read the requirements file. Thanks

you should be carful when compileing kernels, never compile anyhitng as moduels taht u need to boot (in example, your root fs should be compiled in, so shold whatever drivers are needed to acces the hard drive
|
Yes I cmopiled the root fs into the kernel
