You probably copied vmlinux across. This is an uncompressed file and not what you were looking for. Try copying arch/i386/boot/bzImage to /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.16 or similar. You also need to copy System.map to /boot/System.map-2.4.16 make-kpkg (apt-get install kernel-package) is an easier way to get kernels installed in the Debian way. -- /__ \_|\/ /\ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
