After completing LFS convert on to LIVE CD

calling_u3 · 07-04-2007, 07:36 AM

Hi

Now I have recently completed my LFS and BLFS.
Therefore I have converted this into ISO image with the help of using live script (www.linux-live.org).
But when I was burn on disk and boot then I have faced some problem
:-
Booting correctly but after that screen is still dark and nothing is happened
I am trying many times but every time still same problem.
Any idea…

Hello calling_u3, maybe you missed support for framebuffer console on your kernel configuration? If you are booting into framebuffer mode, please check this out.

calling_u3 · 07-07-2007, 09:30 PM

Hello icmp_request.

That's mean i have to build a fresh new kernel for this.
Actually i am using Latest stable kernel 2.6.21.5

Will u explain in detail....

Hello calling_u3. I'm sorry but I don't know what you mean. Would you like instructions about recompiling your kernel to enable framebuffer support if you don't have it?

Hi icmp_request
yes exactly
I want to know some instruction that how to enable the frame buffer when i will be recompiled my kernel.

Hi calling_u3, from your kernel source, do :

make menuconfig
then, choose
Device Drivers -> Graphics support -> <*> Support for frame buffer devices
Device Drivers -> Graphics support -> Console display driver support ->[*] VGA text console
Device Drivers -> Graphics support -> Console display driver support -> <*> Framebuffer Console support

and then recompile your kernel like usual.

Please EDIT your .config first at linux-live script directory, likes MKMOD="bin etc home bla bla bla....

, and make sure dev directory included.

* Something went wrong and we can't countiue. This should never happen.

It was told that this should never happen so you're not supposed to be having this error; the best thing you can do is believe it's not happening!

Hehehehe seriously now, well...I haven't any Live CD experience but try doing what mujie told you.
