I went to /usr/src/linux-2.0.32 and executed make config. I answered yes
to kernel support for PPP..networking and all the necessary options.
That was OK. Then make dep went OK. Make clean also. All the zImage step
seemed OK, but the last lines ended with messages:
Boot sector 512bytes
Set up is 4428 bytes
Syst is 612KB
Syst is too big
make[1]:***[zImage] error1
make[1]:leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-2.0.32/arch/i386/boot'
make:***[zImage] error 2
..Then I went to /usr/src/linux-2.0.32/arch/i386/boot and wanted to copy
zImage on a floppy
so I can boot my linux system from the floppy ( I did dd if=zImage
of=/dev/fd0 bs=8192 from usr/src/linux-2.0.32/arch/i386/boot. Then I
rebooted with that floppy and got following :
Loading.............
No set up signature found..
1) Could anyone tell me what happened??
2) What is missing ??
3) Shouldnt I put zImage on floppy as i wanna boot kernel image from
floppy??
4)How come I can boot my system with my old boot disks without problem??
So..recompile didnt affect anythin on my system right??
