So far I have had issues with kernel upgrading but I have finally gotten a working kernel with the exception of the keyboard and mouse when I boot to the upgraded one. The method I followed was to copy the old config file from /boot to /usr/src/linux-2.4.20/.config and then make oldconfig. I then did make menuconfig to unselect modules and make them statically compiled into the kernel. For some reason modules cause errors when I do make modules_install. This could be a problem down the road when I try to get AFS and Kerberos to cooperate, but first things first let me get the system somewhat current ;] Basically my issue is that my mouse and my keyboard give no response when I boot. I have selected the following options under USB support: Preliminary USB device filesystem EHCI HCD (USB 2.0) support UHCI (Intel....) support OHCI (Compaq...) support USB Human Interface Device (full HID) Support HID input layer support /dev/hiddev raw HID device support These are all of the related things I would think that would need to be enabled in the kernel for my mouse/keyboard to work. And theoretically as far as I understand this is an exact kernel image of my 2.4.17 kernel that works. If anyone is willing to mail me a working .config file so that I can recompile this kernel and make it functional on either the 2.4.20 or 2.4.18 kernels I would be immensely appreciative. Thanks in advance for any and all help. Cheers, Adam -- Adam Parrish Asst. Linux Administrator ECE Dept, North Carolina State University Office: 919.515.0124
