make dep;make clean;make;make modules;make modules_install;make install;
lilo

This is the best most efficient compile I've ever done. But I still hang
at:

Ok booting the kernel.

The kernel size, depending on options, runs between 400k and 500k. And I
tried bzimage
and zlilo to no avail.

My kernel is 2.2.9 on SuSe 6.1 333 Mhz 128 mb ram. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

This is what I do and it works every time:

make config
make dep
make clean
make zImage
make modules
make modules_install
Copy zImage to / (my boot directory)
edit /etc/lilo.conf to add new kernel name, (if different from old one)
run lilo
reboot
have fun...

I've never seen the 'make install' used in the kernel build. Though I'm not
saying you can't do that. I also notice when you used 'make' you didn't
tell it WHAT to make. Though I'm no expert there either.

use make bzImage and copy the kernel (bzImage :) and the system.map to the
boot location. Change lilo, run lilo and it should work.

If it was then I'm wondering how you ran you're other compiled kernels :)

Good luck, Hans

hi there

Question:

i usally end up using bzImage because of a large kernel config , do i
also add the bz to the other commands after make bzmage?

Nope bzImge should only be used in the make part.
