While hanging out with David, I/we inadvertently compiled my 2.6 kernel
without console support, so when it boots, I see LILO for a little bit,
then nothing after that. I suspect my problem is something like this
(http://tinyurl.com/ydc8pt).
I'm not quite sure how to exactly recover it. I tried booting to my
original Slackware 11.0 CD and chrooting, but it's not working for
whatever reason.
What I've done thus far:
boot to slack CD
cd /mnt
mkdir hda
mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda
chroot /mnt/hda /bin/bash
Now I get another prompt with a number at the end
e.g. r...@slackware:/1
I enter some command, hit return, and I get
r...@slackware:/2
Now do I just:
cd /usr/src/linux
makemenuconfig
make dep && make clean
make zImage
make modules
cp /usr/Linux/src/arch/i386/boot/zImage /boot/newkernel
make modules_install
?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have been spoiled by the
"genkernel" command and am still getting used to doing it all manually.
