Linux

4/26/99 - Purchased THE COMPLETE redhat LINUX Operating System 5.2 Deluxe.

4/28/99 - Current Kernel is the 2.2.6 or newly released 2.2.7

To update the kernel do this:

copy kernel to /usr/src
tar zxpvf linux-2.2.6.tar.gz
cd /usr/src/linux
make xconfig <- configures the kernel (x windows version)
make dep
make zImage or make bzImage if too large
copy bzImage to /boot
reconfigure /etc/lilo.conf to use the new kernel.
/sbin/lilo
