yikes I messed up my first attempt at kernel stuff ... ok it's not as scary as I thought
it would be but still pretty confusing... following this link(as best I understood)..
http://www.yellowdoglinux.com/support/s ... nels.shtml
I updated 2.4.22-2a to 2.4.22-2g no prob. Then I went into the control center and enabled
usb printer and usb v4l(both not as modules)... did the kernel stuff and now
on reboot I get 'Kernel panic: no init found. try passing init= option to kernel'
I did do the steps as in 3a.(kernel.shtlm) Putting the kernel in place, but my System.map
still points to the old kernel. How do I go about changing this?
