This is what I did. I followed all the steps in the Linux kernel release 2.0 up to make config. After I configured the kernel with make config, I installed linux package updates. The last one I installed was ppp. I ran the configure script and then ran kinstall.sh in the linux directory (from where I untarred the ppp package) and then I ran make install. Next, I compiled the kernel with: make dep; make clean; make zlilo; make modules_install and left it alone. Next I made a bootdisk with cat zImage > /dev/fd0.
I followed instructions from 2 different web sites on upgrading, both instructions were a little different. www.signet.com.sg/~sunsurf/linux12.html and Upgrade to 2.0 site( I don't have address). Can anybody shed some light on this subject. I upgraded from 1.2.13 (Slackware 3.0) to 2.0
I will be looking at the README.linux for ppp more closely to find the answer.
