similar to: recompile kernel 2.6.20.7 (so I get updated forcedeth driver)

John, Was there a reason for the (2) make oldconfigs? just curious This all worked rpm -i kernel.XXX.src.rpm cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS rpmbuild -bp --target i686 kernel.XXX.spec cd /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.9/linux-2.6.9 make mrproper cp /boot/config-2.6.9-11.EL .config make oldconfig

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

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 am using centos 5 x86_64 AMD64 X2 4200+. I am current on yum update. My machine has two ethernet cards. e1000 (eth0) and forcedeth (eth1) [root at fsdsigns2 ~]# more /etc/modprobe.conf alias eth0 e1000 alias eth1 forcedeth sometimes on boot the forcedeth driver thinks it is eth0: [root at fsdsigns2 ~]# dmesg | grep eth forcedeth.c: Reverse Engineered nForce ethernet driver. Version 0.60.

Hi, I am using centos4 and am trying to build a source kernel dom0 with xen. I cloned a copy of the xen repository and did the following hg clone http://xenbits.xensource.com/xen-2.0.hg cd xen-2.0.hg/xen make dist cd linux-2.6.11-xen0 make ARCH=xen oldconfig make modules make modules_install make install After which point I get the following error : CC drivers/xen/balloon/balloon.o

Hi all, Same system as my previous mail - Asus P5N32-E SLI motherboards, CentOS 4 x86_64. The kernel-supplied forcedeth driver works in kernel-smp-2.6.9-55.0.9.EL (both with and without acpi=off), but after upgrading to kernel-smp-2.6.9-67.0.4.EL, networking does not start. After trying dhcp, ifconfig reports 17 dropped TX packets (all other counters are empty). Ethtool reports the same

Hi, I encounter a error when installing the latest kernel 2.6.34 in centos. Steps: 1. download source code. 2.tar -xvf 2.6.34.tar.gz 3.use the .config file of current system in /boot directory. 4.make ,make modules_install, make install, 5.reboot. 6.error:: accur. Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while ... Activating logical volumes Volume group "VolGroup00" not found

Hi, Here'a a question - is it possible to compile a single module (distributed in the kernel source tree) for the current CentOS kernel (2.6.9-5.0.5) without recompiling the entire kernel and all other modules. I basically need reiserfs3 (nb. why is it disabled? it's a module, you use it, it doesn't wreck anything...) and I don't really want to change the rest of the kernel, and

I'm hoping someone can help me here. I've purchased replacement systems for 3 aging 1.4.x installs. I'm hoping to setup Asterisk 11, dahdi 2.6.1 and Oslec. I'm also moving those installs from Mandriva 10.0 to Debian 6.06 (Squeeze). In my testing, the TE220P PCIe cards that I have, the timing was awful on both slots, so I compiled Kernel 3.6.9 from kernel.org. Timing jumped to

Hi, I am working on CentOS 6.5 which has 2.6.32-431 kernel. I have a problem with my driver and I need to enable Kernel-Memory leak in the kernel for which I will have to recompile the kernel. I get the kernel source tree from the the source rpm for my running kernel from below link- http://vault.centos.org/6.5/updates/Source/SPackages/kernel-2.6.32-431.11.2.el6.src.rpm and I try to build

I've been running Centos for different purposes in a VirtualBox environment for quite long now. But the newest kernels miss something so I can get the VirtualBox Extensions linked in. I can see in the virtualbox log file that I shall run maken oldconfig and make, but I get these errors: # make oldconfig && make prepare scripts/kconfig/conf --oldconfig Kconfig # # configuration

I am attempting to recompile the kernel with the following steps. Install kernel-sourcecode rpm cd /usr/src/linux-2.6.9-11.EL cp /boot/config-2.6.9-11.EL .config make menuconfig Device Drivers -> Character Devices -> Serial Drivers change Max number of non legacy 8250_NR_UARTS to 36 make bzImage make modules_install make install Then after rebooting and selecting my -custom

Is there a method to control module load order? I want to ensure that the e1000 module loads before the forcedeth driver. Jerry

centos 5 had modprobe.conf entries for eth0 and if present eth1. something like: alias eth0 forcedeth alias eth1 e1000e For the new centos 6 (I have the rhel 6 client installed on my laptop) the modprobe.conf file is gone. Which is fine. I understand files can be created in /etc/modprobe.d and server the same purpose. My question is I dont see (doing a grep) any eth0 alias's in the files in

hi i ve seen one of your replies here and i saw that you receomend 2 modifications in the kernel files in order to improve htb. first in pkt_sched.h, changing PSCHED_JIFFIES to PSCHED_CPU. and then, sch_htb.c, changing HYSTERESIS from 1 to 0. is it that simple? i mean i just change these here variables and i get better results? i ve done a search and found the first file in 3 locations. where

I have not see this before... Installing centos 5 on m2n-mx motherboard the onboard forcedeth driver loads and says invalid mac address "97:42:40:F3:18:00" Anyone else ever seen this before? Is it fixable? I went to support.asus.com and searched for "invalid mac address" they say sorry no data. Jerry
