Compiling Kernel - No module image
This is my very first time compiling a kernel. So I'm surprised I made it this far.
Debian Sarge - Going from 2.4.27 to 2.6.21. Everything seemed fine through the menuconfig. I compiled it using: Code:
time make-kpkg -revision 2.6.21.1 kernel_image kernel_headers modules_image Aren't I supposed to have a modules image? |
You didn't specify kpkg to build you one ;)

OK... back to the docs. :) |
Hold it, search for the image in the /usr/src/modules dir. Or maybe somewhere else...
|
Quote:
Now I'm confused. Is my make-kpkg correct? |
Hmmm, I'm starting to doubt myself...

(besides, the 2.4 kernel is still installed) When I select the 2.6 kernel in grub, I get a nasty error during boot: Code:
kernel panic = not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-blank(0,0) Surprise, surprise. :) Back to the docs again... :study: |
Installed the kernel-package and read the man-page. I wasn't wrong, the modules_image image should be present in the /usr/src/modules dir. If the dir isn't there, the modules_image wasn't build. Try building the images with the --append-to-version option.

Quick question... what's the cleanest way to uninstall the 2.6 kernel? Can't find any info on it. Thanks again! |

See section 7.1.1. And yes, this method still works, even though it has been dropped from the debian.org pages. http://freesf.tnc.edu.tw/docs/debian...nel.zh-tw.html My remakeit.sh script for my personal rev 0.4 of 2.6.20.3 in my system: Code:
