Hi guys,
I know this may sound elementary to some. Please bear with me, sorry, ngayon palang ako mag aaral nito e. hehehe.
you'd be surprised to know that not everyone who's a long term *nix user can do this...
Pano mag update ng kernel sa linux? is it different from adding patches? kasi i visited www.kernel.org and downloaded a suppose to be kernel. Pero ang file nya is patch-2.4.25.bz2. Is this correct? Nalilito ako if adding patches and upgrading kernel are one and the same. Steps naman jan o how to update my kernel. Example kernel 2.4.18-3 to the newest kernel version. Thanks in advance.
1. download this:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.4/linux-2.4.25.tar.bz2
(http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.4.tar.bz2 is the newest so you might want to try that instead)
2. tar Ixvf linux-2.4.25.tar.bz2
3. read linux-2.4.25/INSTALL
4. profit
i also hunted down the kernel-HOWTO for you. now it resides here pending review at tldp.
