Suse 9.2 and multimedia kernel
My problem is: from www.jacklab.net i have installed kernel-2.6.11.12jad2-1.i386.rpm
I try to follow the instructions on linuxclub.de but it was in german. At least in synaptic i can see the kernel is installed. In /boot folder i have vmlinuz-2.6.11.12jad2 and initrd-2.6.11.12jad2 So i think that i should somehow tell in /boot/grub/menu.lst to system to boot this kernel, but howto do that. Anyone else using this kernel and how do you did it. Im confused. |

there is a lot (and much better) patches that include RT and all notes are in english.
simply edit GRUB menu.lst (use YAST or any editor you like) After boot you should see a menu with list of available kernels to boot |
Thanks for your replys. I edited the menu.lst like above, rebooted and i get error 15 file not found when i boot. So im missing also
something else. One thing is that when i look at /boot i noticed that i have this vmlinuz-2.6.xx-default and also just vmlinuz And in the menu.lst the original default kernel points to only this vmlinuz, not to the vmlinuz-2.6.x-default. Im totally lost now. What other RT kernels or patches there are and where can i found them. |
/boot/vmlinuz is a link to the Linux standard kernel, which is named vmlinuz-2.6.xx-default. In menu.lst, you can either address the kernel directly (using the full name of the binary), or via the link. The later option allows to keep menu.lst untouched after a kernel update (only the link needs to be changed).
When you edited you menu.lst, did you keep the (hdx,y) setting? If you copied my settings, the kernel may not be found on your system. |
