I was compiling some software, and I was also trying to recompile my kernel the other day...

But I accidently typed "make clean" (by itself) while I was in /user/src/linux!!!

What can I expect from this?

I am recompiling the kernel 2.6 with some options I forgot from the last compile. But when I emerged with the latest kernel and linked the kernel source with...

ln -s /usr/src/whatever /usr/src/linux

Then after using "make menuconfig" I ran:

make && make modules_install


But the kerel compiled quicker then before I believe, and the output was not the usual output I get when I compile something! I got something similar to this...

LD [M] drivers/net/s2io.ko
CC drivers/scsi/dpt_i2o
LD [M] net/ipv4/netfilter/ipt_NOTRACK
CC net/ipv4/netfilter/ipt_NOTRACK.mod.o
INSTALL drivers/char/agp/intel-mch-agp.ko


Well I wasn't sure if this output was normal for a kernel recompile...or if my kernel even recompiled at all! I will try intalling what I got though, and seeing if it works.

Thanks for any help anyone can give me!

There's nothing wrong with make clean...If you're not sure you can always try to recompile it ;)

Code:

LD [M] drivers/net/s2io.ko
CC drivers/scsi/dpt_i2o
LD [M] net/ipv4/netfilter/ipt_NOTRACK
CC net/ipv4/netfilter/ipt_NOTRACK.mod.o
INSTALL drivers/char/agp/intel-mch-agp.ko


If you don't get that kind of messages during compiling, you've done something wrong ;)

Then just "cp /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/kernel-name && cp /usr/src/linux/System.map /boot/System.map-kernel-name"

And don't forget to edit your bootloader.

Yep, I just inserted the new kernel, and rebooted the computer. Reconfigured the Nvidia drivers and the sound...

I just needed to recompile to add chipset support so my stupid DMA would work! And I included support for a PCI RAID card!

Now my system is flyin with everything working correctly! "glxgears" gives me about 5401 with everthing running in KDE 3.3, incuding a hefty backgroud! (not sure how good that score is, but my card is a little slower) This 2.6 kernel is pretty great now I think! LOL!!! :)

Thanks for your help!
