Good afternoon,
I have used my weekend to compile a new kernel, but to my dismay the new
kernel does not boot. All I get is a black screen, and nothing happens.
I compiled the kernel like this:
eselect kernel set (the new sources)
cd /usr/src/linux
make oldconfig
(answering various options about new features)
You forgot to copy your current configuration. *Before* doing "make
oldconfig" you to either do:
zcat /proc/config.gz > .config
or:
cp ../linux-yourpreviouskernel/.config .
and *then* run "make oldconfig"
