New KERNEL?
Hi!
I've installed Debian since 3 months and I'm very happy with this choice... The kernel's version is 2.2-idepci and I would like to upgrade to a newest version. First because I've found an ST WebCAM which work only with 2.4> kernel even I think that 2.2idepci is a bit older... Now, how do i do? Which is the way to do that? I know that I must download kernel source and compile them... AND ...??? My machine is a Celeron 333 98Mb Ram 40Gb Disk ... and so on... ThkS! Cia! ..:eMa:.. |
Code:
# apt-cache search kernel-image Code:
# apt-get install kernel-image-2.<whateveryouchose> |

I do not think that you have to recompile your kernel-image.
As you executed lilo - after a hopefully complete intallation of your new kernel - the error message said: Quote:
But, what you need in 'etc/lilo.conf' is the entry: Quote:
OK, hope this helps to solve your trouble, if not please post the error messages. bluebirdz |
