I currently have 2.6.9-r9, and recently did emerge -uD world. I got an updated set of kernel headers (2.6.8-r2) and an updated set of development sources (2.6.10-r4). In order to use the new kernel and save the 2.6.9 (just in case), I think that I need to do: make oldconfig make modules_install emerge alsa-driver (according to the alsa gentoo doc, it says that whenever you re-compile kernel sources, this should be done - hopefully, my /etc/asound.state, make.conf and modules.d/alsa files will be left intact) cp bzImage /boot/kernel-2.6.10-r4 cp System.map /boot/System.map-2.6.10-r4 cp /usr/src/2.6.10/.config /boot/config-2.6.10-r4 edit grub.conf to add the new kernel version rm -f /usr/src/linux ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.6.10-gentoo-r4 /usr/src/linux
I don't think I've left anything out. any input is greatly appreciated. I'm somewhat new at this and don't want to have to redo anything I don't have to. -- [email protected] mailing list
