bzImage problem
« on: 28 February 2003, 01:34 »
Hello,

this is my first post and Im getting stuck into RH7.3 Linux on my p4 1.6Ghz box.

The problem is this......

when I configure the kernel for ntfs/vfat and my souncard (SBLive!) then compile it, build the bzImage and make modules/make modules_install all goes well.

when I cd to the kernel directory and try to

locate bzImage

nothing happens. When I try to

cp bzImage /boot/vmlinuz (after backing up my old kernel), it returns the error message of:

cp: cannot stat bzImage: no such file or directory

Can anyone help shed some light?

It's in <linuxsource>/arch/i386/boot (where <linuxsource> is the base directory of the source tree) (you're trying to copy <linuxsource>/bzImage, which doesn't exist. Odd that locate doesn't find it though. Compiling was sucessfull, wasn't it?)

I hope light has been shed.
