RH9 rebuild kernel help2003-10-31 02:37:21 AM kylix0 I'm not quite sure where to post this, but I figured this is a good place to start. I'm trying to rebuild the RH9 Kernel in order to eliminate the Kylix 3 bug that shows up with the open/save dialog. (I tried installing 2.4.21 kernel with the "unofficial" patches, but my machine won't boot from that one.) So I've got the source for 2.4.22 kernel. I run through it and it always says that the footprint is too big. I'm running zImage at the end, and the resulting file is down to 902kb now, which is apparently still too big. I'm wondering if anybody here has a .config file you could share with me that I could use to build this small enough. You can email it to me at: d.schwartz(at)asu.edu (A config file for 2.4.21 would be ok, too.) (I reset everything to the default values, then made the SCSI support a Module option, added Reiserfs and a couple of things like parallel port support, and switched a few other options to Module support. There just doesn't seem to be a heck of a lot of stuff to exclude now without losing access to parts of the hardware, like USB support.) thanks -David |
