The steps for kernel compilation are very well documented in the kernel sources, and in Kernel-HOWTO. For all systems the steps are similar. Please check where the kernel sources are on your RH box. I cannot understand your requirement very well ... do you want to have different kernels on different days ? In which case, you need to keep seperate version specific sets of modules. If you are looking for a tool for building kernels, you may like to have a look at a shell script on Freshmeat: Buildkernel 1.04 by William Stearns (http://freshmeat.net/users/wstearns/) URL: http://freshmeat.net/projects/buildkernel/ Bish -- : ####[ Linux One Stanza Tip (LOST) ]########################### Sub : Steps for kernel compilation LOST #087 1. #cd /usr/src/linux 2. #make mrproper 3. #make menuconfig 4. #make dep 5. #make clean 6. #make modules 7. #make install 8. #make modules_install Change /etc/lilo.conf and than run lilo -v For detailed explaination refer to Kernel-HOWTO. ####<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>######################################## : _______________________________________________ linux-india-help mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-india-help
