What would be the proper steps to upgrade to 2.6.11 on centos 4.0
This is what I think...
tar -zxvf linux-2.6.11.6.bz2
cd linux-2.6.11.6
make oldconfig - enter for all choies presented
vi .config - change 8250_NR_UARTS to
36 to support 4 - 8 port rs232 cards
make bzImage
make modules_install
mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.11.6 2.6.1.6
cp -f arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinux-2.6.11.6
edit /etc/grub.conf
Is this the correct procedure?
Thanks,
Jerry
