Hi all,
I am trying to upgarde my kernel from 2.4.18 to 2.5.70. I have downloaded the latest kernel and enabled preemptive nature in it. I have also modified the .config file to suit my needs. I did "make modules " and then "make modules_install". After this "make bzImage" .
Everything went fine and i got the image. I copied that image in the /boot directory and modified lilo.conf and ran lilo.
While trying to boot into this new kernel i get this message "....... Uncompressing LINUX ok... " and then the machine hangs.
Is there anythign special that needs to be done.
If i can get any pointers then it will be of great help.
Thanks
Ciao Tapesh

Have you made initial ramdisk ? #mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.5.70.img 2.5.70
Now initrd=/boot/initrd-2.5.70.img in /etc/lilo.conf
