For sparc32 you need to strip the kernel of non-essential parts in order for it to fit into the space reserved for it. It goes approximately like this: cp /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-4-sparc32 vmlinux.gz gzip -d vmlinux.gz strip -R .comment -R .note -K sun4u_init -K _end -K _start vmlinux gzip -9 vmlinux mv vmlinux.gz /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-4-sparc32 Best regards, -- Jurij Smakov [EMAIL PROTECTED] Key: http://www.wooyd.org/pgpkey/ KeyID: C99E03CC -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
