kernel compilation

[mtr]

hai

 I am a new bie in the list. I have a doubt. It is about kernel compilation.
I use  linux-2.4.20-8 in redhat 9. In the default kernel after i giving
the lsmod command it will list the following list

Module                  Size  Used by    Not tainted
sr_mod                 18136   0  (autoclean)
i810_audio             27720   0  (autoclean)
ac97_codec             13640   0  (autoclean) [i810_audio]
soundcore               6404   2  (autoclean) [i810_audio]
parport_pc             19076   1  (autoclean)
lp                      8996   0  (autoclean)
parport                37056   1  (autoclean) [parport_pc lp]
autofs                 13268   0  (autoclean) (unused)
microcode               4668   0  (autoclean)
8139too                18088   1
mii                     3976   0  [8139too]
ide-scsi               12208   0
scsi_mod              107160   2  [sr_mod ide-scsi]
ide-cd                 35708   0
cdrom                  33728   0  [sr_mod ide-cd]
keybdev                 2944   0  (unused)
mousedev                5492   1
hid                    22148   0  (unused)
input                   5856   0  [keybdev mousedev hid]
ehci-hcd               19976   0  (unused)
usb-ohci               21480   0  (unused)
usbcore                78784   1  [hid ehci-hcd usb-ohci]
ext3                   70784   7
jbd                    51892   7  [ext3]

After compilation the new kernel is booting and i could not get the USB
mouse and Xserver. At the prompt i give ls mode it will give only the
following line.
Module                  Size  Used by    Not tainted

I compile the source in /usr/src/linux-2.4.20-8/ using the commands

make xconfig
make dep
make clean
make bzImage

after this i move the bzImage to the boot directory and edit grub to boot
the new kernel.

How to load all modules in the default kernel into the new kernel.
or How to make a kernel image that contain all the default modules and my
new option given in make xconfig.

Sorry for this long mail to this list and my not good english.

If this is not a list to ask this type of questions please give the
apropriate list name

With regards
Manoj

Re: kernel compilation

[Andreas Unterkircher]

you havent build all the modules i think :)

this order as example if you wanna do it step by step

make xconfig
make clean
make dep
make
make modules
make bzImage
make modules_install

andi

Kernel Compilation

[Syed Mohammad Talha]

 Dear all,

 I have just subscribed this mailing list and sent mail to
 linux-vger.kernel.org but this seems that I am missing omething, because I
 cant see my mail on the list and also have no idea whether this is the
right
 place to discuss or not, if not please excuse me, if yes than please help.
I
 have an IBM e-server and have installed redhat 7.1 with kernel 2.4.2, now
 when I am trying to upgrade the kernel I am unable to do so. This has the
 SCSI HDD and controller aic7xxx. I am upgrading the new kernel 2.4.10 now
 when I start compiling the kernel every things goes ok but when I makes the
 initrd image it gives different errors, like

 modules for aic7xxx not found or
 all loopback devices busy

 I am selecting all the options in the kernel compilation as per my
knowledge
 and adopting the ways defined to compile, I have compiled the same kernel
on
 an IDE drive and is working fine and did not gave any error, but on scsci I
 am very badly stuck, I can make the initrd image from the old modules
 directory and define in the lilo.conf with the new kernel it works. Once I
 was successful in making the initrd image through the new kernel module
 directory but this was of no use, because when I rebooted the machine there
 was a kernel panic


 So guruz please if u can help me in resolving this problem, I am not sure
 that whether I am selecting the wrong choices in the kernel compilation or
 there is something else. Also when I compared the old module directory
which
 was of the default installed kernel and which I compile are quite
different.


 Looking for help

 Talha
