Hi, I'm trying to recompile CentOS stock kernel, and after making my choices (make menuconfig), i run "make" and imediatly get this error (after my signature).

Hi, I've built customs kernels from the SRPMs with the following: rpmbuild -bp --target=i686 /path/to/spec cd /usr/src ln -s /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-x.y.z/linux-x.y.z linux cd linux make oldconfig make menuconfig make all make modules make modules_install And it works just fine. The problem now is that I think installing that way isn't

I installed 2.6.20.7 copied /boot/config{something} to .config make oldconfig make oldconfig make menuconfig - turned on drivers -> Sata -> nvidia make bzImage make modules make modules_install make install rebooted. Seems like the issue I had with forcedeth (nvidia) bad MAC address is gone. However, the iptables gives errors. Where in the menu tree do I enable what iptables needs??? I

I downloaded the kernel from kernel.org. I did the following: cd /usr/src tar -jxf /tmp/linux-2.6.17.3.tar.bz2 cd linux-2.6.17.3 make menuconfig selected what I needed, saved the new config make bzImage make modules At this point nothing is compiled. All I get is: CHK include/linux/version.h Building modules, stage 2. MODPOST and a command prompt. I did make menuconfig again and it

RHEL 4 (and thus CentOS 4) do not have appletalk module included. CentOSPlus rather thoughtfully has the 'unsupported' version which would have the appletalk module but I have been unable to get the old megaraid driver to run compiled from the kernel-devel for these 'unsupported' kernels. Thus I would love to simply compile the appletalk module myself from the standard

Oye 3 days on this now, my head hurts. I have spent what seems like 40 hours in the last 3 or 4 days reading, and I realize xen is in the middle of this transition of getting into mainline kernel, issues with dom0 etc etc. Ok, so i have come across a few howtos/tutorials on installing xen dom0 kernel, using git to download a patched? kernel tree, and getting xen source from mercurial. Below is my

I have a plain vanilla Centos source (not 100% sure where we got it from), but I can't seem to get a build that installs correctly. I tried the method described at http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Custom_Kernel, but rpm doesn't like the output file, and even if I install it with -F, nothing seems to happen - no new kernel, now initrd, nothing. When I tried following the directions in the
