 Posted: Sat Apr 16, 2005 2:40 pm Post subject: building a kernel vs genkernel |
 |
|
hello everyone, i am a long time gentoo user and i know how to build a kernel by hand. with this install of gentoo i decided to use lvm2 on everything but my boot and swap so i needed a initrd, which genkernel makes, but lately i have been having a heck of a time making a kernel with genkernel.

System is too big. Try using modules.

why does the genkernel make the System to big but when i clean and make it by hand it works just fine? the other question is when i make the modules and modules_isntall. | Code: | if [ -r System.map ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F System.map 2.6.11-gentoo-r6; fi

vmware will not start without vmmon and when it loads is says unknown symbol, nvidia loads just fine right now... haver rebooted though, vmnet worked just fine last time i tryed to modprobe it which was before the kernel rebuild.
[edit]
i have just tryed genkernel without the gensplash and it outputs this | Code: | JamesS root # genkernel --udev --lvm2 kernel

i really want a boot splash so i dont really want to take out the genkernel option! im using gentoo-sources-2.6.11-r6 on a amd64 platform |

i would build the kernel by hand.
| Code: | | make && make modules_install && make install |
btw you can enable the framebuffersplash in the gentoo-sources w/o using genkernel thingy. |
