Hi there,
How do i recompile the 7.3 kernel when there is no kernel-headers rpm installed and I know it is not available on the CDs as well?
Linux kernel versions are presently at 2.4.x -- stable and 2.5.x -- unstable. 7.3 is the Redhat version grrrr.... Get the kernel source rpm installed. Or download a fresh set of kernel sources. And read the README file and the Documentation directory. They would have all the necessary steps for compiling....
You would generally need... make menuconfig make dep make bzImage make modules
You'll find the kernel image in 'arch/i386/boot'
But read the docs before doing anything.... Try the Kernel-HOWTO to begin with. ciao Abhijeet More
