[parisc-linux] Problem installing new kernel

[Tino Hirschmann]

Hi,

i got palinux-0.9.2 running on my HP 715/80. I compiled the kernel as
discribed on the webpage.
But what do i have to do after i did make palo ?
I think make zlilo doesn't work here .-)

Thanks

Tino

'make palo' will build a vmlinux, and then use that to build a lifimage.
The lifimage is used for netbooting.  If you are booting from disk
you want to copy vmlinux to /boot/vmtest (or something).  Then your
options are either

or interact with the ipl somehow (either say 'yes' to the question on boot,
or use 'bo isl', depending on machine), and edit the kernel name to
be vmtest.
