I want to upgarde my kernel which is 2.4.18 to the
latest thing 2.4.19.

But every time I recompile my kernel, it crashed. I

Where do you extract the kernel sources and compile the kernel? it must be in /usr/src/linux

don't know why?

I use the following command:

1. make dep bzImage modules

2. make modules_install

3. cp bzimage to /boot/bzimage-2.4.19

4. edit /etc/lilo.conf

5. lilo

6. init 6

I use Redhat 7.3, but when I refer to
Kernel-install-HOWTO they mention the /usr/src/linux
directory which is not found in Redhat. I found
/usr/src/redhat.

What is problem here. and what is best procedure to
upgrade the kernel without crash.

Best regards.
