* New Kernel with Speakup and ZIPSPEAK @ Dietmar Segbert ` 'Georgina' 0 siblings, 1 reply; 4+ messages in thread From: Dietmar Segbert @ UTC (permalink / raw) To: speakup Hello, i use zipspeak ud want to compile a nwe kernel, so that all my hardware ist installed. I have downloaded the kernel 2.4.188 an speakup-1.00. Then i have done the following steps: cd /usr/src rm -r speakup* rm -r linux*tar xzf speakup-1.00.tgz tar xzf linux-2.4.18.tgz cd speakup-1.00 ./install cd ../linux make mrproper make config (i have only done the steps for speakup) make dep make bzImage mv /vmlinuz /vmlinuz.old cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /vmlinuz cp System.map /boot/system.map shutdown -r now I load linux with loadlin and not with lilo. lilo ist not on my harddisk. I have not become any errors during the compilation of the kernel. At the end was only a warning: kernel ist to great for a floppydisk After rebooting i start linux with linux.bat form the dos-prompt. My apolo speaks kernel 2.4.18 and so on. My hardware ist detected and then comes a message: can not mount /root fs Kernel panik What can i do or does this kernel not work with Zipslack (zipslack)? Thanks.

I thought that it was. Can you run make menuconfig? This is a lot easier to quickly look and make changes. If this was the case, I thought that the error message would of stated such. Could it be an error from incorrectly stating the root device on the loadlin commandline. Although, I guess that it hasn't been changed. But double check that your loadlin line looks like something like this: loadlin.exe \linux\vmlinuz-new root=/dev/hda1 ro HTH Gena Blindness Advocacy and Self Help Online www.bashonline.org >Hello, > >i use zipspeak ud want to compile a nwe kernel, so that all my hardware >ist installed. >I have downloaded the kernel 2.4.188 an speakup-1.00. >Then i have done the following steps: > >cd /usr/src >rm -r speakup* >rm -r linux*tar xzf speakup-1.00.tgz >tar xzf linux-2.4.18.tgz >cd speakup-1.00 >./install >cd ../linux >make mrproper >make config (i have only done the steps for speakup) >make dep >make bzImage >mv /vmlinuz /vmlinuz.old >cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /vmlinuz >cp System.map /boot/system.map >shutdown -r now > >I load linux with loadlin and not with lilo. lilo ist not on my harddisk. >I have not become any errors during the compilation of the kernel.

* Re: New Kernel with Speakup and ZIPSPEAK ` 'Georgina' @ ` Igor Gueths ` 'Georgina' 0 siblings, 1 reply; 4+ messages in thread From: Igor Gueths @ UTC (permalink / raw) To: speakup Hi. Another thing you can do is to do make oldconfig, and then edit the .config file in the current directory as you wish. I had the same problem with the kernel panic and not being able to mount the root filesystem. To fix this, don't compile the driver that has support for only one ide controller. This, in this case, would be /dev/ide0 is supported only. If you are compiling a 2.4.18 or 2.4.17 kernel, the question will begin like: "Please see /Documentation/ide.txt." Say n to this question, as this will compile the driver that has support for multiple ide controllers. If you have an ide floppy, hd, and Cdrom drive, you will have an ide0 and ide1. This happens to be my setup as well. Hope this helps. On Sun, 5 May 2002, 'Georgina' wrote: > Hi > > I can't remember if the default value is for MS DOS file system > supported or not.

You've missed out make modules and make modules_install. Having said which, you can't modulise the drive driver that holds your root file system. Just used the less command 'less .config' and the pertinent command you need to observe is: CONFIG_UMSDOS_FS is not set Obviously, you want it set as being enabled.
