However, I use an older method with the src.rpm, https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Building_a_custom_kernel/Source_RPM instead of any of the currently recommended methods, and install from rpms. I am unfamiliar with the method you are using, so cannot offer any help. However, it does sound like a bug that anything would be looking for lilo in F31. I think the currently recommended methods (mock? fedpkg?) automatically install any needed dependencies from the repositories, so if it is a dependency error, they would correct that. What does the output say? I usually use something like > output.save 2> error.save on the commands when I have problems, set verbose in the spec file, and then examine the saved output to see what caused the error. A dependency problem will usually show up before the actual error in the output e.g. in your case it might warn of not finding something it is looking for before it defaults to lilo. _______________________________________________ kernel mailing list -- kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to kernel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
