I downloaded the kernel from kernel.org.
I did the following: cd /usr/src tar -jxf /tmp/linux-2.6.17.3.tar.bz2 cd linux-2.6.17.3 make menuconfig selected what I needed, saved the new config make bzImage make modules
At this point nothing is compiled. All I get is: CHK include/linux/version.h Building modules, stage 2. MODPOST
and a command prompt.
I did make menuconfig again and it has an [*] next to the kernel modules.
Why are modules not compiling?
THanks,

I resently compiled 2.6.17
wget http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/source/S... rpm -ivh kernel-2.6.17-1.2328.fc6.src.rpm cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/ rpmbuild -bp --target $(uname -m) kernel-2.6.spec cd /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.17/linux-2.6.17.i686/ cp configs/kernel-2.6.17-i586.config .config make menuconfig make make modules_install make install
I was going to do it from source, but was told the best way would be downloading the srpms
