according to the SMP-FAQ one must
(a) define SMP=1 in the makefile
(b) make modules
(c) make modules_install
BUT, according to my linux friend, to build a regular
non-SMP kernel involves performing these steps:
(a) make clean
(b) make config
(c) make depends
(d) make zImage
(e) copy zImage to /boot
(f) modify the vmlinux softpointer to point to zImage
(g) run lilo (with no arguments to install new kernel for boot
availability)
SO, where does the modules stuff come in ... should these steps
come in after "make zImage" as in:
(a) make clean
(b) make config
(c) make depends
(d) make zImage
(d1) make modules
(d2) make modules_install
(e) copy zImage to /boot
(f) modify the vmlinux softpointer to point to zImage
(g) run lilo (with no arguments to install new kernel for boot
availability)
