Compiling The Linux Kernel Problems

The Analog Kid · 12-26-02, 08:25 AM

I'm having trouble compiling, well after that when I reboot. My USB HID modules(I've tried it saying Y in xconfig) can't be found. Maybe I'm answering them wrong. My ethernet card(SIS 900) isn't reconized either, nor my sound(C-Media) while on the Red Hat modified kernels and on any of the newer O/S it is. I'm duing the process right
make dep;make clean;make bzImage; make modules; make modules_install
I copy over the bzImage and name it vmlinuz-2.4.20 and the System.map and name that System.map-2.4.20. I don't have a initrd because I don't have any scsi devices as opposed to what the Red Hat kernels.
