What's the point? We already have g++ which works well enough.

Downloaded a new kernel from kernel.org and installed it.
kernel 2.4.17
Did, make mrproper, make config, make dep, make bzImage,
make modules, make modules install.
I copied /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage to
/boot/vmlinuz
I copied the speakup map to /boot
Didn't get any errors durring any steps.
I rebooted and the system started talking but ended with
unknown bridge resource 0: assuming transparent
kernel panic: VFS: unable to mount root fs on 03:06
anyone have a suggestion
Thanks
Ron

Couple of things here to think about. Did you include support in your kernel
for the file system that your Linux system is installed to. As I recall
Mandrake 8.1 uses ext3 by default.
Also did you update your boot loader to reflect the new kernel?

I had installed as XFS file system.
Mandrake by default does an ext2, but I think I did install
for that and other journilized systems.
Yes, ran lilo and it boots but stops with the errors.
I have been told I can't do make oldconfig, because
mandrake uses a customized kernel and includes many options
not found in a standard source kernel.
If anyone knows differently about this, I'd appreciate
knowing about it.
Thanks
Ron

My understanding is that the customized kernel is the exact reason for
choosing make oldconfig.
As for the problem you are getting, I would guess that you built the
support for the root file system as a module. Problem is that the module
may not load before mounting the file system. I would start with a check
there. For troubleshooting you may want to build every file system
directly into the kernel. If it works, start dropping the ones you don't
need (or think you don't).

I'm assuming that your kernel actually lives in /boot/vmlinuz. Also, did you run lilo or update whatever boot loader you have so that it would boot your new image instead of your old one?
This looks to me like the kernel isn't seeing your hard drive. Can you confirm this from the output during boot? Is your hd on a udma controller? If so, did you include support for that controller? Also, I'm wondering why you ran make config instead of preserving your old kernel's .config file and running make oldconfig instead?

What errors do you get when running lilo?
