Hello everyone,
I wanted to upgrade form Linux-2.6.15-52-386 kernel to vanila Linux-2.6.33.2 kernel from kernel.org. I compiled and installed kernel with defualt configurion (except for disabling booting from NFS)
Steps for compiling kernel:
$make menuconfig --- to disable booting form NFS
$make
$make modules
$make modules_install
$make install
$cd /boot/
$mkinitramfs -o initrd.img-2.6.33.2 2.6.33.2
Following is a list of messages that I get when I try boot with new kernel:
modeprobe: FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.33.2/modules.dep: No such file or directory.
WARNING: Couldn't open directory /lib/modules/2.6.33.2: No such file or directory
FATAL: Could not open /lib/modules/2.6.33.2/modules.dep.temp for writing: No such file or directory.
ALERT!: /dev/hda1 does not exists. Dropping to a Shell!
I'm trying all this on sun virtual box. My Linux-2.6.15-52-386 still works well.
Following are grub entries:
title Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.33.2
root (hd0, 0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.33.2 root=/dev/hda1 ro quiet splash
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.33.2
savedefault
boot
Please help!
