Kernel

Tue Jun 6 14:00:41 UTC 2006

Hi!
        I got the latest kernel 2.6.16.18 in a magazine... I unpacked it and
gave the foll commands

make oldconfig    pressed y for a few questions and then pressed enter till
the end.
make
make install

Then made a symbolic link vmlinuz to point to the new kernel and updated
menu.lst

Then when I rebooted I got a lot of fatal errors saying cannot find/load
/lib/modules 2.6.16.18

kernel panic

What went wrong...

Now I have changed vmlinuz to point to 2.6.8 and updated using a livecd
since I only have one OS (Warty) on my system....

Can you tell me the right procedure to install also how to recompile a
kernel and all stuff related to the linux kernel....

Cheers!
Vignesh
