Dear Suresh & Mukund, Yes I recompiled the kernel with Framebuffer and now I can boot in vga=788 mode with nice little penguine on the console during the boot process.
I followed the commands such as: tar xjvf /usr/src/kernel-source-2.2.19.tar.bz2 in a directory such as /usr/local/src/ after doing cd kernel-source-2.2.19/ I used: make menuconfig make-kpkg clean fakeroot make-kpkg --revision=custom.1.0 kernel_image As root, do dpkg -i ../kernel-image-2.2.19-custom.1.0_i386.deb This was Debian specific and worked quite OK. Now I want to know why there is no make mrproper,make , make install , make dep etc. usual stuff. Also some tips regarding kernel compilations that we need to have symlink to source directory such as linux --> kernel-source-2.4.5 why this symlink is reqiured. Also Linus's document README tells that do not use /usr/src area as it has incomplete kernel header files. Can any body tell help me in clarifying this doubts? I am going to compile 2.4.18 in MDK81 and Slack 8 so pl. letme know if you have some tips.Anyway I am reading the manuals at my end to get my fundas clear.
