Compiling a kernel is pretty much the same thing: You configure it and than compile it. Whilst compiling, you will use a tool called make-kpkg, there read the --help for options and targets, usually
make-kpkg --bzimage kernel-image would do the trick... This creates a .deb, which you can install with dpkg -i kernel$%%/()&.deb Thats basicaly it with installing kernels under debian. ingo -----Urspr�ngliche Nachricht----- Von: Rupert Heesom [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gesendet: Donnerstag, 19. Mai 2005 14:41 An: MailList AMD 64 Debian Betreff: How to install SMP kernel? I have a dual Opteron machine onto which I've installed Debian using sid-amd64-netinst.iso. Now, I think this install only caters for a single cpu right? Is there an altenate ISO that would install an SMP ready kernel, or should I recompile the kernel to enable SMP? If a recompile is the best way, I'm new to Debian (more used to Redhat, Mandrake). Is compiling a kernel under Debian much the same thing, or are there docs for Debian kernel compiles? -- Rupert Heesom <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
