I am running debian etch with - Linux thor 2.6.18-6-amd64 #1 SMP Thu Dec 25 21:08:54 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux ; I am running this with Raid 5 and LVM.
I would like to update to 2.6.29 ; I found this article but i am little stuck, can you help ? the article is: http://www.falkotimme.com/howtos/debian_kernel2.6_compile/ The steps are: 1. *apt-get install kernel-package ncurses-dev fakeroot wget bzip2 2. **wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.29.tar.bz2 3. * *tar xjf linux-2.6.29.tar.bz2* *cd linux-2.6.29/* *4.**make menuconfig* *make-kpkg clean fakeroot make-kpkg --revision=custom.1.0 kernel_image 5. **apt-get update apt-get install module-init-tools initrd-tools procps 6. cd ../ **dpkg -i kernel-image-2.6.29_custom.1.0_i386.deb 7. **cd /boot/ mkinitrd -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.29 2.6.29 8. I reboot and and choose the 2.6.29 option from grub. But i am getting an error that it can not find or mount the filesystem. If i reboot again and choose the older config, everything is back to normal and i am working with the old kernel. Can anyone assist ??? thanks *
