KERNEL_DIR=/home/daniel/src/linux KERNEL_VER=3.0.0-rc4 cd $KERNEL_DIR #build kernel and images make bzImage make modules make modules_install #copy newly created image to /boot cp $KERNEL_DIR/arch/x86/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz-$KERNEL_VER cp $KERNEL_DIR/.config /boot/config-$KERNEL_VER cp $KERNEL_DIR/System.map /boot/System.map-$KERNEL_VER #setup initrd image cd /boot mkinitramfs -o initrd.img-$KERNEL_VER $KERNEL_VER thanks, Daniel. _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
