No dep file found for kernel 2.6.3-7mdkcustom
When compiling Kernel 2.6.3-7 i get this messages
Kernel: arch/i386/boot/bzImage is ready /usr/src/linux-2.6.3-7mdk/arch/i386/boot/install. sh sh 2.6.3-7mdkcustom arch/i386/boot/bzImage System.map "" No dep file found for kernel 2.6.3-7mdkcustom No dep file found for kernel 2.6.3-7mdkcustom There was an error when generating initrd. Try to do a : /sbin/mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.3-7mdkcustom.img 2.6.3-7mdkcustom to see the errors looks like there is a problem, the default vmlinuz version is not the same as the initrd which means you have a mdk kernel and not a mdk initrd wich may give you trouble not adding bootloader entry: 263-7custom, it already exists I have installed kernel-2.6.3.7mdk and kernel-source-2.6.3 -7mdk I never had this problem in the other versions of mandrake and already happened the kernell version be diferent of the version of kernel-source. Any help to fix this? |
Did you do:
make make modules make modules_install Also, check /lib/modules and see if there is a folder called 2.6.3-7mdkcustom. If there isn't, then that's your problem. When making the initrd make sure you put like 2.6.3-7 (whatever the custom made module's folder name is). |
im not a newbie
and for ur information in kernel 2.6 its done like this: make mrproper make xconfig make modules_install install And again the problem is in the version on kernel and kernel source READ WITH CAREFULL: Kernel: arch/i386/boot/bzImage is ready /usr/src/linux-2.6.3-7mdk/arch/i386/boot/install. sh sh 2.6.3-7mdkcustom arch/i386/boot/bzImage System.map "" No dep file found for kernel 2.6.3-7mdkcustom No dep file found for kernel 2.6.3-7mdkcustom There was an error when generating initrd.

HEY YOU CAN STOP YELLING.
Maybe you should learn to have manners before you make another post. If you know what you're doing already and didn't want my help, why did you making the post??? Not to be rude but RTFM, that _isn't_ how you compile a kernel. You never even made the modules. http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...threadid=73436 Have fun _NOT_ listening to other's advice, being cocky, and last but not lease, being rude. |
Kernel 2.6.3 compiling problem...
Quote:
I double-checked in order to make sure I did everything I had to, in order to successfully install my successfully compiled kernel, that is: make clean make modules make modules_install make bzImage make install and I got the same problem that mmodem had, i.e.: No dep file found for kernel 2.6.3-7mdkcustom In /lib/modules, I have a folder named 2.6.3-7mdkcustom, as it should be (you now know I'm trying to install a 2.6.3-7mdkcustom kernel). One thing that may be of any help.... In that folder, there is no modules.dep. Is that normal ? Thanks, |
Re: Kernel 2.6.3 compiling problem...
Got the solution while reading my prev. message. modules.dep missing..... I should have done that before.
depmod 2.6.3-7mdkcustom This creates every needed files in /lib/modules/2.6.3-7mdkcustom Then, make install, from /usr/src/linux, created the initrd file as needed. :study: See ya, |

make mrproper make xconfig make modules_install install u could also google... |

Making the mrproper erases the Mandrakified configuration files containing the setup which is specific to the Mandrake distro. There is no reason to do this under Mandrake, and what you are referring to is a holdover with clean compilations using other distros that do not provide their own customizations. Make xconfig also should be invoked with the parameter to invoke the "old" mandrake configuration, which oops, gets blown away by make mrproper. Unless you are specifically changing a configuration entry, only the last step is needed, even then the mandrake configuration files should be retained. The make install will also correctly create the system map files and place them into /boot |
