custom kernel
by tony 04 Jan '06

04 Jan '06

Hello, There haven't been many messages as of late and my last question went unanswered. I hope this one get a reply because it is a show stopper... I am trying to customise the kernel and rebuild the kernel rpm for my live CD. As it is destined to run on VIA Epia-M only I want all the VIA specific option enabled. I have followed the instructions here: http://crab-lab.zool.ohiou.edu/kevin/kernel-compilation-tutorial-en/steps.h… Does any one have another source for more recent instruction on kernel packaging?

Hi all, tryin to get the loopback mount encripted for the livecd, I attempted modprobing loop and then changing the the following entry in livecd-mkinitrd.sh losetup ${LODEV} $IMAGE || exit 1 TO READ losetup -e des ${LODEV} $IMAGE || exit 1 to read So I run the installer, and and am prompted to enter a password (as expected) then as soon as I press enter I get "ioctl: LOOP_SET_STATUS: Invalid Arguement" Any Ideas?

mkinitrd failing
by tony 29 Dec '05

Hello, I am back building LiveCDs with my custom kernel My kernel rpm is called 2.6.14EPIAIX-1, when it installs it makes /lib/modules/2.6.14EPIAIX mkinitrd is choking on this name difference at the end of the build /home/tony/tmp/livecd-build_no14/system/lib/modules/2.6.14EPIAIX-1 is not a directory. *** Fatal error: /usr/local/share/kadischi/livecd-mkinitrd.sh returned non zero (256) exit code. Aborting execution. I don't know where this naming difference comes from. The kernel runs just fine on my machine and has done so for quite some time... Any pointers ideas greatly appreciated Tony -- Tony Grant www.tgds.net - vente d'ordinateurs mini-itx en ligne www.tgds.net/epiaix1.html - A fedora Core 4 based live CD for VIA Epia-M
