Update : Still working this ... it is taking longer than I had hoped. I feel like a dummy but I am having issues building the older kernels from git.
The 4.4.13 and the 4.7rc6 built and ran, no problem but during the bisect building the 3.13.0-24.47 to 3.15.0-1.3 kernels have been an issue. Using an Ubuntu 16.04 base OS, the kernel Makefile needed to be changed, setting CC=gcc-4.8, or it would not compile, complaining about gcc5 header files missing. after changing the makefile, it then built ok but when the .deb kernel- image packages are installed and the system rebooted the OS dies immediately after grub loading initramfs, with a message from the vm manager saying the host os has disabled the cpu. I then tried rebuilding on an older (slower!) 14.04 machine and that worked, built and ran fine if i scp'd .deb's over to the VM and tested. Now the bisect has brought me to 3.15 and the debian/rules folder has been deleted, which is what I was using here : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/BuildYourOwnKernel I am now looking at this : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/GitKernelBuild which doesn't require the debian/ folder. Any suggestions?, I am going about this the correct way? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1591521 Title: Kernel Does not recognize some USB 3.0 hard drives To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1591521/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
