    Yes.

    Just configure the kernel for the machine it will be used on (cpu hardware etc.)

    Re: Master Kernel Thread

    Hello,

    I am running Windows XP and Ubuntu Edgy on my pc.
    Specs:
    P4 2.8 Ghz
    512mb ram
    Aopen AX4SPE-un motherboard
    GF FX5950U
    Maxtor 250gb SATA HDD

    Right now I have kernel 2.6.17 and it works great. However, I would like to upgrade to 2.6.19, so I followed this tutorial

    After doing exactly as the tutorial says, I reboot and I get to GRUB and I select the new kernel. But then I get: Intel_rng FWH not detected and then I have to reboot.
    Any idea?

    I'd say you didn't compile the kernel with the correct drivers. What CPU do you have?

    Re: Master Kernel Thread

    The howto resulted in a policy violation when I ran the following;
    # make-kpkg clean
    exec make -f /usr/share/kernel-package/ruleset/minimal.mk clean
    /usr/share/kernel-package/ruleset/misc/version_vars.mk:123: *** Error. The version number # # configuration written to .config # 2.6.19.1 is not all lowercase. Since the version ends up in the package name of the kernel image package, this is a Debian policy violation, and the packaging system shall refuse to package the image. . Stop.

    the italic part must be all numbers, letters, and must be all lower case. It must include at least one number. I usually use custom1 as the revision number (and if, for some reason, I have to recompile, I use custom2, etc) The revision number can be whatever you want, and has no impact on anything.

    Re: Master Kernel Thread

    I used the old version of this guide to upgrade to the 2.6.18.2 kernel, and everything went great. So I decided to try it again for 2.6.19.1, and everything works up until this step:

    make-kpkg -initrd --revision=386 kernel_image kernel_headers modules_image

    I get this error message:

    ## Main Make ##
    IGNORE_CC_MISMATCH=1 CC="gcc-4.1" /usr/bin/make -C /usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel/nv -f Makefile SYSSRC=/usr/src/linux KBUILD_PARAMS="-C /usr/src/linux SUBDIRS=/usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel/nv" module;
    make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel/nv'
    Your kernel was configured to include rivafb support!

    The rivafb driver conflicts with the NVIDIA driver, please
    reconfigure your kernel and *disable* rivafb support, then
    try installing the NVIDIA kernel module again.

    *** Failed rivafb sanity check. Bailing out! ***

    make[3]: *** [rivafb-sanity-check] Error 1
    make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel/nv'
    make[2]: *** [build-stamp] Error 2
    make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel'
    make[1]: *** [kdist_image] Error 2
    make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel'
    Module /usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel failed.
    Hit return to Continue

    When I went into the kernel options, I disabled the riva support, recompiled and received the same error message. Do I need to remove the nvidia driver and modules before recompiling?

    Any help would be great.

    Re: Master Kernel Thread

    After doing this, on booting up the custom kernel it gets up to the usual 'booting kernel' line and goes black, then after a while it gives an error that /dev/hda5 does not exist and goes into an ash shell. I tried both with compiling the file system supports as modules and as kernel as someone suggested. Tried oldconfig and blank with configmenu, and other things, it made no difference. Perhaps I tweaked it too much, I don't know. Suggestions welcome.

    Re: Master Kernel Thread

    I found a solution if you get the error message: FWH not detected.

    add this to your kernel in /boot/grub/menu.lst : no_fwh_detect=-1

    Now that I am able to boot further, I get to another problem. It is booting fine but it stops after this:

    [ 11.517648] sd 1:0:0:0 Attached scsi removable disk sdc
    [ 11.521528] sd 0:0:0:2 Attached scsi removable disk sdd
    [ 11.526177] sd 0:0:0:3 Attached scsi removable disk sde

    I have a SATA hdd, but I did select ´support for SATA´ in qconf.
    Should I also select support for ATA?
