compile a new kernel in RHEL 5
Hi all,
I need some help in compiling a new kernel. I am using RHEL 5 with kernel version 2.6.18. I have downloaded a kernel from link HTML Code:
http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.20.6.tar.bz2 Code:
1. cd /usr/src 2. wget -c http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.20.tar.bz2 3. tar xvfj linux-2.6.20.tar.bz2 4. cd linux-2.6.20 5. make clean && make mrproper 6. make menuconfig 7 make clean 8. make bzImage 9. make modules 10. make modules_install 11. mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.20.img 2.6.20 HTML Code:
http://www.digitalhermit.com/linux/Kernel-Build-HOWTO.html#CONFIGURATION-2-6 It only has the old file i.e initrd-2.6.18.img. Also, few parameters in the make menuconfig are bit confusing, it would be really great if someone has any ebook regarding the parameters. Pls help !! Thanks in Adv. Vikas |

mkinitrd creates new initrd file which you have to keep inside /boot directory.
Which will be use by kernel while booting. "file not found" indicates file created by mkinitrd is not present in /boot directory. |
