Hi guys! i followed tutorial for building custom kernel for centos5 http://howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_centos with lastest kernel downloaded from kernel.org . in menuconfig i used /boot/config-(mycurrentcentoskernel) as a configuration. then i compiled with make rpm. Result was ok, but my kernel was about 400MB of size! :( Next problem was that alltought i we had ip_nat as a module selected in menuconfig, i did not had it, and i was not able to modprobe ip_nat , so my iptables were not working. I am looking for some help and experiences. Probably in thinks like : howto make new kernel for centos to be the most compatible (using /boot/config... probably). The reason why i need this is : - problem with pptpd on x64 centos 5.1 (causes freezing --- found that it is a kernel bug .. still not fixed in rhel - centos :( ) - problem with ath_pci (atheros module) which causes masine freezing after hours of use without any footprints in logs , tested that on fedora 8 this works stable :( Thanks in advance!
