thx for your answer. |

I do it now in the following way: |
| 10 |
Set LOCALVERSION in the .config file from the kernel (if you find the |
| 11 |
right menu point you can also do it with make menuconfig, but vim is |
| 12 |
faster *g*). |
| 13 |
Compile the kernel and easily install it with make install. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Then I have the files: |
| 16 |
System.map-2.6.18-gentoo-r6-32bit |
| 17 |
config... |
| 18 |
vmlinuz... |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
In grub I always have the link to the full name and not to the symlink. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
That works fine but if I upgrade to a new kernel I must always update my |
| 23 |
grub config file. |
| 24 |
Ok that is not so bad but if there would be a solution to solve it with |
| 25 |
a symlink I would prefer it :) |
| 26 |

Best regards, |
