Re: 2 problems -- building the 2.0.36 kernel; login error
I believe that installing the deb of the kernel-image 2.0.36 will get you to 2.0.36. As for the boot question, i do not know. Perhaps you should wait a bit more ? ---BeginMessage--- 1. I upgraded Debian 1.3.1 -- 2.1, but my kernel is still 2.0.29. What should I do to upgrade the kernel to 2.0.36? 2. When I login as any user other than root, the system rejects me with the error msg: System bootup in progress -- please wait I incrementally killed all daemons running to see if one of them was prohibiting the login. But the problem still occurred. I then re-ran adduser to make sure my password was right. But the problem still happens. Anyone have any clues? Thanks, Charlie ---End Message---

If you have apt, apt-get install kernel-image-2.0.36 If you don't have apt, you can download the deb file manually and install it. Or you can get apt (i'd recommend the latter) 2.

If so, that's probably what's preventing non-root users from logging in. Why it's still around after the system finishes booting, i don't know. - -- finger for PGP public key. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: 2.6.3ia Charset: noconv iQCVAwUBOBPB9L7M/9WKZLW5AQE7FwP+K1oVaP6gkLRxx/dLg+7seqG1dtTD6RIS ctwbsrBkTbQx/6OCxVvZ27IYnEJ9VRE893EWQhb3yKdLLIT8FX8ocxQ5aNndQJV3 BUhh11fac4Fwo4N5yUbUB4nERH4V0O8sgzSz3idiHvTWvbDXw2d1Xra0qp4EXaCi zgUlMIiYLQI= =fDPq -END PGP SIGNATURE-
