Kernal rebuild
Hi,
I am trying rebuild the kernal for Fedora Core2. The requirement is that I need to remove the Qlogic driver from the build. I need to build this qlogic driver seprately and load them using "insmod". So I used "make menuconfig" and removed all the ql stuff from the config. But, looks like there are some traces of ql drivers in the Kconfig file in the /usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi folder. And there is entry for qla2xxx folder too. May be because of this the drives are getting loaded when the new built kernal was loaded. So I manually commented the entries for all the Qlogic stuff in Kconfig file. After the kernal failed to boot panicing that it failed to mount root fs. I am not sure whether the manual changes caused this. There is a proper initrd file in the boot folder.
Can anyone help me in this ?
thanks a lot in advance.
