building 2.6.22-rc3, Fatal:raid_setup:
hi,
I was having problems with the huge26.s kernel on my laptop wherein it would refuse to boot after i installed the kernel-modules package (I can boot and log in if i Dont install the kernel modules package). I had a problem with the hda-codec ALC882 (soundcard) and read in the changelog that this issue was rectified in the 2.6.22-rc2. So this is what i did: 1. Downloaded 2.6.21 and patched it up to 2.6.22-rc3 2. cp /boot/config ~/linux-2.6.21/.config 3. make oldconfig 4. make menuconfig (did'nt make any changes, just gave it a once over) 5. make (compilation proceeded and finished without a hitch) 6. make modules_install (finished successfully) 7. make install ok so the problem is with the 7th step. when i run 'make install' i get: Code:
#make install Code:
boot = /dev/hda Why cant i install my new kernel?? could anyone please tell me what im doing wrong here. |
im not sure there is a need to 'make install' a kernel...
u just copy it in /boot and change lilo.conf to associate with the new kernel.. whenever i compile my own kernel (even though never a patched on so far - always i start clean, migrating only the .config file to avoid having to reconfigure every single thing) i use as a reference the slakcbook page: http://www.slackbook.org/html/book.h...KERNEL-COMPILE follow its steps after you patch your kernel (you have done that already) and you should be fine |
ok one problem gone, another one crops up in it's place.. i compiled the kernel successfully, modified lilo and installed it (after booting from the slackware cd, mounting my linux partition and chrooting to it).. now the kernel boots up and when it comes to loading modules...
Code:
agpgart: Detected an intel 945M chipset Code:
hda_codec: Unknown model for ALC882,trying autoprobe from BIOS someone Please tell me what im doing wrong here..Love slackware and i just do Not want to migrate to gentoo or anything else. |
