I also have tried to compile 2.4.20 for my RH 8.0 system. I tried to find an rpm version but it failed to install. I have everything running with the new kernel accept the Ethernet Card. I have tried both compiled and module versions to no avail. I think the trouble may have to do with the way Grub starts the system. I am no expert on this but the entries for 2.4.18-** have an img file. I have read the Grub man page and the information on compiling the kernel but have found nothing on how to produce one of these. Here is my Grub file. # grub.conf generated by anaconda # # Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file # NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that # all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg. # root (hd0,0) # kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/hde2 # initrd /initrd-version.img #boot=/dev/hda default=0 timeout=10 splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz title Red Hat Linux (2.4.18-14) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.18-14 ro root=LABEL=/ hdc=ide-scsi initrd /initrd-2.4.18-14.img title Red Hat Linux (2.4.20) root (hd0,0) kernel /bzImage ro root=/dev/hde2 # initrd /initrd-2.4.18-14.img Any help would be greatly appreciated Thank You Bob Parry -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
