Hello from Gregg C Levine normally with Jedi Knight Computers I know I'll get an argument here, but here is my process for building a kernel: (The # is the shell prompt) #make config (or make xconfig or make menuconfig) && make dep && make && make install. Note that this is for an Intel based setup so, YMMV. The make install step only works for me, because I need to let it update the boot loader. My guess is that you�d need not to do that step. The next step for S/390 would be to run whatever bootloader is used to update that step. Of course if you are building the kernel for the very first time, that intermediate step "make dep" isn't necessary, as the raw code has its own settings included. And don't forget to rebuild the entire module array. What we need on this list is a Linux kernel guru, one of those people who spend their days just reading the code. ------------------- Gregg C Levine [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------ "The Force will be with you...Always."
