I accidentally posted this first in the tutorial thread so moderators, sorry, delete it if it posts :-)
Ok now, I followed the master kernel post to make a new kernel and Im having a problem seeing it in grub.
My system is as follows..
Backtrack 4, Ubuntu 9.04, and Vista.
I edited my menu.lst file earlier to make it "prettier" and I was on my ubuntu distro when I did this.. it didn't change anything, so then I loaded backtrack, did it there, and edited THAT menu.lst... well that one worked!
Ok now. I made the kernel, compiled it, rebooted etc. Grub wasn't listing my install.. So I googled, tried "update-grub" command.. I saw it list the new install.. I rebooted, once again, nothing was effected..
Did the same thing with the backtrack 4 distro. the update-grub command acted diff though, and said it found a new version etc gave me a text based GUI, I chose install new... rebooted, didn't see anything new either.. and NOW im lost..
Now what?
If you see this msg is recent to you, ill be on for a few hours checking the post to see if anything is updated, or feel free to PM me!
