ukez Posted September 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 As I write this all from memory, I probably wrote a wrong path... Try and execute this: # cd /usr/src/linux # find . -name bzImage -print Yves. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yin i thought you would of give up on me by now..lol I've just bought my 30" lcd tv today so i have to get this tv card of mine running dammit or, dare i say it.. its back to media center... (excuse the language) lol Your Last Commands gave me this below: Password: [root@192 ~]# cd /usr/src/linux [root@192 linux]# find . -name bzImage -print ./arch/i386/boot/bzImage [root@192 linux]# Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theYinYeti Posted September 2, 2005 Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 Yin i thought you would of give up on me by now..lolPassword: [root@192 ~]# cd /usr/src/linux [root@192 linux]# find . -name bzImage -print ./arch/i386/boot/bzImage [root@192 linux]# I'll keep helping if I can :) According to the abore result, this must work (don't forget to be root): # cd /usr/src/linux # cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.13-perso # cp System.map /boot/System.map-2.6.13-perso So is your error with this line? # mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.13-perso.img 2.6.13-perso Yves.

dlm250r Posted October 2, 2005 Report Share Posted October 2, 2005 (edited) i want to jump in on this...........so forgive me. but that is EXACTLY where my error is! i named my new kernel simply custom when i do:#mkinitrd /boot/initrd-custom.img custom i get: /lib/modules/custom is not a directory forgot to make modules_install sorry Edited October 2, 2005 by dlm250r Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theYinYeti Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 It is probably "2.6.13-custom" or "2.6.13custom". To know the good name, do this: # ls /lib/modules/ Yves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlm250r Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 Correct! found /lib/modules-2.6.11-12mdkcustom successfully booted my FIRST kernel compile........ however, on the kernel.org page..... the 2.6.13.2 link IS a patch file. over to the right is an F link which is the FULL source.......... just my TWO cents :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlm250r Posted October 14, 2005 Report Share Posted October 14, 2005 (edited) have successfully installed 2.6.13.3 twicenow(going for number three as I type). keep losing supermount along the way... however cedega finds my cdrom. but, konQuereor can't show me the files. also, whenevr i try to reconfigure the kernel, (after following the above steps, plus selecting which initrd to use in MCC), upon trying to boot the new kernel, i get a panic about cant find init. (have even used init= option in boot loader append). mounting my CD-Burner and DVD-ROM is a big issue. trying to reconfigure the kernel is an even bigger issue. guess u can still call me newbie.... and STILL trying to get AWAY from Windoze....... going on 3 years now.......

theYinYeti Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 supermount is not in the kernel by default. You'll have to find a kernel patch with supermount inside, and enable it in the configuration. I never cared about supermount so I don't know where such a patch can be found. Good luck. Yves.

dlm250r Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 what alternatives are there to supermount? i want to be able to stick a cd into cdrom and have a mounted window show up on my desktop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarecrow Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 what alternatives are there to supermount? i want to be able to stick a cd into cdrom and have a mounted window show up on my desktop. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Message Bus (aka dbus) Hardware Abstraction Layer (aka HAL) and ivman (aka ivman). That is what everybody uses now. Oh, and it works, all the time, unlike supermount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlm250r Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 HAL comes with LE2005........... WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? have tried editing fstab(still a noobie) and not sure i'm checking(or unchecking)the right options a little more specific help would be GREATLY appreciated.

dlm250r Posted October 21, 2005 Report Share Posted October 21, 2005 all is well now.... don't know how it got started on the DVD-Rom, but i copied the dvdrom line over to my cd rewriter but excluded the ro option(it is a burner) here is a copy of my /etc/fstab, if it will help anybody else out with the supermount issue. /dev/hdb1 / ext3 defaults 1 1 /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom iso9660 user,iocharset=iso8859-1,noauto,ro,exec 0 0 /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom2 iso9660 user,iocharset=iso8859-1,noauto,exec 0 0 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto umask=0,user,codepage=850,iocharset=iso8859-1,noauto,sync 0 0 /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows vfat umask=0,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850 0 0 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/hdb5 swap swap defaults 0 0 Thanks for your patience.
