Fedora7 finally succeeded in compiling the kernel

Fedora7 finally succeeded in compiling the kernel-Linux general technology-Linux programming and kernel information. The following is a detailed description. First of all, let's talk about the reason for compiling the kernel. My computer has never been able to shut down. I used to be able to use fc4, but there was no sound. So I upgraded the kernel. After upgrading, there was sound, but cannot shut down. Reading the online post and modifying the grub file has not been solved. I have tried to compile the kernel multiple times, but it cannot be started after each compilation, either/roott or kernel panic.

Analysis: online query is similar to a post, and no reason is found. So this time, I directly copy the upgraded kernel 2.6.21-1.3228.fc7 config file to the linux-2.6.21.5 kernel folder I downloaded and decompressed, the specific steps are as follows:

# Cp/boot/config-2.6.212-1.3228.fc7/usr/src/kernel/linux-2.6.21.5/
# CdS/usr/src/kernel/linux-2.6.21.5
# Make mrproper
# Make oldconfig
# Make menuconfig

At this point, I started to configure the kernel based on the 2.6.21-1.3228.fc7 kernel. I haven't started it many times before, so I didn't dare to change it this time. In order to solve the shutdown problem, directly remove the apm item of power managmentli, which is compiled into the kernel by default.

# Make install
# Make modules_install

So far, the kernel compilation process has ended. Copy the file,

# Cp System. map/boot/System-2.6.21-5.fc7.map
# Cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.21-5.fc7
# CdS/usr/src/kernel/linux-2.6.21.5
# Mkinitrd/boot/initrd-2.6.21-5.img 2.6.21-5

Modify grub. conf

Restart, the above briefly describes the process of compiling the kernel.
