I recently tried compiling my 2.0.36 kernal for smp and got the following errors when
trying to boot:
loading aic7xxx module
/lib/aic7xxx.0: unresolved symbol scsi_unregister_Rd5403f3a
/lib/aic7xxx.0: unresolved symbol scsi_register_R0f08cac5
VFS: cannot open root device 08:05
kernal panic: VFS: unable to mount fs on 08:05
I read all the available documentation prior to attempting the recompile and did the
following:
edited the makefile and uncommented 'smp=1'
make menuconfig (the aic7xxx dirver was set up as a module)
make dep
make clean
make zImage
make modules
make modules_install
I renamed my old kernal and edited my lilo.conf (to be able to reboot if anything went
wrong).
copied the new vmlinuz to /boot
ran lilo
rebooted
Everything I've read says that should do it, but obviously I did something wrong or
left
something out. Other posts to this list imply that this kernal works fine with this
board, so
I know it is possible.
Can anyone help?
