Good afternoon, |
| 2 |
I have used my weekend to compile a new kernel, but to my dismay the new |
| 3 |
kernel does not boot. All I get is a black screen, and nothing happens. |
| 4 |
I compiled the kernel like this: |
| 5 |
eselect kernel set (the new sources) |
| 6 |
cd /usr/src/linux |
| 7 |
make oldconfig |
| 8 |
(answering various options about new features) |
| 9 |
make menuconfig (haven't changed much, only made sure that all the modules I |
| 10 |
new were necessary were included). |
| 11 |
make && make modules_install |
| 12 |
mount /boot |
| 13 |
copied the kernel, reconfigurated grub, and rebooted. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
So, probably, I have set something in kernel incredibly wrong, but I don't |
| 16 |
know what, or how to find out. My last working kernel is 2.6.25-r7: |
| 17 |
yoav@yoavhost ~ $ uname -a |
| 18 |
Linux yoavhost 2.6.25-gentoo-r6 #1 SMP Sat Jul 5 22:33:03 IDT 2008 x86_64 |
| 19 |
AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4000+ AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux |
| 20 |
|

how can I find out what I did wrong? |
