From: dpinkney@cs.cs.ulowell.edu (Dave Pinkney) Subject: How to compile the kernel under SLS Date: 7 Mar 1993 00:10:06 GMT
I am running the current SLS distribution. I am booting from the
floppy and have an extended partition on dev/sda2.
All I want to do is recompile the kernel, but I can't get the settings
right.
I have tried setting the ROOT_DEV to FLOPPY and /dev/sda2. I have
tried using just make and also "make disk". Whenever I put a new
image on my boot disk (with ROOT_DEV = FLOPPY or using "make disk"),
the new kernel get's used but crashes because it can't mount root.
Does anyone know the proper combination of options that will give me a
bootable disk with the new kernel image on it?
