I've been looking for documentation on genkernel 3.0.1_beta9 and not having a lot of luck. What I want to do is build 2.6.1-gentoo. From /usr/src, I did:
ln -sf linux-2.6.1-gentoo linux && cd linux Then: # genkernel -- menuconfig --install all GenKernel v3.0.1_beta9 * ARCH: x86 * KERNEL VER: 2.4.20-gentoo-r7 * kernel: configuring source * kernel: running mrproper * kernel: using config from /usr/share/genkernel/x86/kernel-config-2.4 -- prev backed up to .config.bak * kernel: running oldconfig * kernel: running clean * kernel: Making dependencies for linux 2.4.20-gentoo-r7 at which point I freaked and killed it. I want to keep my current 2.4.20-r7 kernel and play with 2.6.1 and the last line above made me think that I was somehow rebuilding my running kernel. I've been using Gentoo for just over a year now but kernel builds still scare me. First I need some assurance and second, If someone can point me to relevant Doc's I'd apreciate it. (the install option, begs at least a discription of what it will install and what it might overwrite) -- Regards, Ernie 100% Microsoft and Intel free -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
