Hi !
At present I have SuSE (ouch! I know now too, its a sticky Distri) 8.0 with kernel 2.4.18 . . .
Wanted to install kernel 2.4.20, though there is no special one for SuSE, but want to build this kernel from a CD of a magazine. And it should run too.
I have at present this SuSE konfiguration with a boot-Discette (there is a part of LILO on it, but not whole LILO). This discette is not able to be viewed in (for security purpose). The files on it are invisible or "not readable".
Easiest way is then to create an extra boot-diskette for 2.4.20 but this fails with the warning (though kernel is compressed with 'make bzImage'):
warning: kernel is too big for standalone boot from floppy make[1]: leaving directory . . . blah
I tried as in README explained with 'make bzdisk' and a diskette in drive A . . . same warning . . .
Somehow the README seems not to be quite proper or not detailed enough . . .???
For feedback thank you very much !!!
Regards
Tino.
