I put everything in order and ended every active line with a && \ that way, if there is an error, its still on-screen when I get back to that screen. Here it is: --- #!/bin/sh ## this script assumes you have downloaded, unpacked and linked ## kernel-whatever.version.minor to "/usr/src/linux" ## First, set the version string to match the Makefile setting VER=2.4.22-pre10 ## For use with the lm_sensors kit, you'll need the following lines ## inserted into your /etc/rc.d/rc.local script [snip ancient history] ##------------------ ## And add these lines to /etc/conf.modules # I2C module options #alias char-major-89 i2c-dev ##------------------ ## Now, the real work. This assumes you have copied your ## .config and .config.old ## files from the source directory of your previous kernel install, ## and have done 'make oldconfig' in the new source directory and ## answered all the questions, and then do a 'make xconfig' to ## check/change anything you wanted to ## The above is NOT for major version upgrades, you must start from ## scratch, do NOT copy over the older .config's when upping from ## 2.2.x to 2.4.x ## I've re-arranged this to be one contiguous command line, because ## this way if there is an error, it dies right there instead of ## making you scroll back 300k in the history to check for errors. make clean && \ make dep && \ make bzImage && \ make modules && \ rm -f /boot/vmlinuz-$VER-old && \ touch /boot/vmlinuz-$VER && \ mv -f /boot/vmlinuz-$VER /boot/vmlinuz-$VER-old && \ cp -f arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz-$VER && \ rm -fR /lib/modules/$VER.old && \ touch /lib/modules/$VER && \ mv -f /lib/modules/$VER /lib/modules/$VER.old && \ make modules_install && \ rm -f /boot/System.map-$VER.old && \ cp -f System.map /boot/System.map-$VER && \ cd /boot && \ rm -f System.map && \ ln -s System.map-$VER System.map && \ cd /usr/src/i2c-2.7.0 && \ echo "Makeing in i2c-2.7.0 now" && \ make clean && \ make && \ make install && \ # this s/b version 2.7.0 cd /usr/src/lm_sensors-2.7.0 && \ echo "Makeing in lm_sensors-2.7.0 now" && \ make clean && \ make && \ make install && \ ldconfig && \ echo All done! reboot and chose your kernel at the lilo or grub prompt ------------ as you can see, it also saves the previous version if its a remake. Handy for reversions if the new one doesn't work. :) -- Cheers, Gene AMD K6-III at 500mhz 320M Athlon1600XP at 1400mhz 512M 99.27% setiathome rank, not too shabby for a WV hillbilly Yahoo.com attornies please note, additions to this message by Gene Heskett are: Copyright 2003 by Maurice Eugene Heskett, all rights reserved.
