Today is when running a lilo menu with "production" and "experimental" |
| 2 |
kernels saved me. "production" is 2.6.30-r8. "experimental" is |
| 3 |
2.6.31-r6 or 2.6.31-r10 (same problems with either one). I set |
| 4 |
/usr/src/linux to point at 2.6.31-r6 (or 10), copied .config from |
| 5 |
2.6.30-r8 and ran "make oldconfig". I got the warnings listed below |
| 6 |
before the config process started. "make oldconfig" appears to have |
| 7 |
reset to default values, and it was showing me some settings totally the |
| 8 |
opposite of what I know I've set. When I ran through "make oldconfig", |
| 9 |
compiled and rebooted, I got a framebuffer console, which I *KNOW* I |
| 10 |
haven't selected. And there was a kernel panic because gentoo couldn't |
| 11 |
find the boot device. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
I'm enough of a bit-twiddler that I can set up the kernel manually. |
| 14 |
But I know from past experience that it's a long slow process. Is |
| 15 |
there any trick to salvage "make oldconfig", before I resort to setting |
| 16 |
up the kernel "the hard way"? Here's the output from "make oldconfig" |
| 17 |
up to where it starts asking questions... |
