I wanted to try installing my Win4Lin 9x 5.0 software, so I unzipped my |
2 |
vanilla kernel source (2.6.11.12 - the newest patch they have for SMP |
3 |
kernels) into /usr/src and changed the symlink. I applied the Win4Lin |
4 |
patches. I wanted the config of my currently running kernel, so I said |
5 |
"make oldconfig" (make oldconfig does do that, right?) I didn't turn on |
6 |
the Win4Lin support yet because I wanted to see if I could get the old |
7 |
kernel to work without it first. I set up the kernel in |
8 |
my /boot/grub/grub.conf file, just like my other kernels. Pretty |
9 |
routine. When I tried to boot with 2.6.11.12, I got this: |

I checked against /boot and all the file names are correct. I booted |
46 |
with the top kernel, so I know those settings are correct, with the only |
47 |
changes in the filenames. What am I missing here? |
