i'm new to kernel and would like to work on modules/device drivers
i have a dual boot system(win98 and linux 2.4.21-4.EL).
i wanted a third option in my boot promp as "test linux".for this i made a copy of the original usr/src/linux 2.4.21-4.EL as usr/src/testlinux and proceeded with the configure and compiling of this kernel and generated the bzimage and system.map.
i have GRUB(0.9).since i already have the bzimage and system.map in my /boot folder for my original linux 2.4.21-4.EL , now how should i accomodate the bzimage and system.map which i generated for testlinux in the same /boot folder , so that i can have total 3 options in my grub.conf. what does initrd do?how should i generate it?
the boot prompt originally looks like:
linux 2.4.21-4.EL
DOS
now i want it to look like:
linux 2.4.21-4.EL
DOS
testlinux
