I don't have urpmi set up right I guess. I am working over a dial up connection so it isn't very feasible anyway. I did have a copy of 2.6.3-15mdk source that I had downloaded on campus earlier. I installed the rpm then used the following commands in the following order ...
make(that took forever) make bzImage cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/bzImage263-15 (used bootdrake to install the new boot image in lilo) make module_install shutdown -r now Problem - I came up with several errors that I couldn't read because it boots so fast. It tries to install my cd drive again and my ntsf drive isn't mounted. In hardDrake I tried to mount it, but failed. Some of the errors looked like usb errors. When I boot back to my old 2.6.3-7mdk it reinstalls my cd drive again. What is going on?
