...orm a burn in test with. lm_sensors needs a kernel module compiled to be support this motherboard's sensors. The instructions, for compiling the module, by tyan (ftp://ftp.tyan.com/software/lms/3870.sensors.conf) match closely with the instructions I found here (http://www.howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_centos). I simply installed the kernel source (yum install kernel-devel) and tried the first basic step, cleaning (which is probably not needed at this point), but it threw the first of many errors I have run into. # uname -a Linux fwtest 2.6.18-53.1.21.el5 #1 SMP Tue May 20 09:34:18 EDT 2008 i686 at...

Hi guys! i followed tutorial for building custom kernel for centos5 http://howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_centos with lastest kernel downloaded from kernel.org . in menuconfig i used /boot/config-(mycurrentcentoskernel) as a configuration. then i compiled with make rpm. Result was ok, but my kernel was about 400MB of size! :( Next problem was that alltought i we had ip_nat as a module selected in menuconfig,...

When I download a kernel from kernel.org I can compile it making config and make bzimage, but in some case I tried to make the kernel for a specific CPU in CentOS kernel source and I can not compile the CentOS kernel. Why CentOS kernel do not compile as kernel of kernel.org? I think that should worlk ease. -- Devel it, Precio http://www.pas-world.com

...that came with the source, I built the kernel just fine, but the instructions then go on to describe how to modify LILO to make the install work, and my boot loader is GRUB - not sure how to reconcile those two. So, I built yet another kernel (rpm) following the guide at http://www.howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_centos, and the rpm built just fine, but when I run mkinitrd, it complains that I don't have the ahci module in my kernel. The only reference I have found to ahci is in my boot setup, and it is already enabled, so, once again, I am stuck. Anyone have any ideas here? I'm running Centos 2.6.9-42....
