I am rather new to *nix so maybe I am overlooking something obvious.... I have a PM 7600 running Debian (kernel 2.2.15) on which I am attempting to update the kernel. I have tried both rsyncing benh's latest source (for 2.4.19 I think) and downloading his pre-complied 2.4 oldworld Powermac kernel. The problem is that even after replacing vmlinux and System.map in /boot (and installing the modules) upon reboot it still tells me I am running 2.2.15. I have tried replacing the actual files as well as just making symlinks in /boot to the new kernel and System.map.
Compiling the source gave no errors but installing that resulting vmlinux and System.map seemingly had no effect either (did a uname -a and it still said 2.2.15 pre 19 (or something like that)) I am booting the machine via floppy using miBoot. Do I have to replace the zImage file on the miBoot floppy? If so how do I make a new zImage from my new kernel? I had this idea as you do need to point BootX to the correct kernel after an update, for example. TIA. Direct replies to [EMAIL PROTECTED] would be great!
