Podcast 66 from lottalinuxlinks.com.
Topics include:

In today's podcast dave talks with Bruce Barr from the open shorts podcast.

Listener beware, the first seven minutes or so of the conversation with Bruce are just a bit hard to hear. Dave had his cell phone's volume turned down too low. Fixing the problem resulted in increased road noise during the seven minute portion of the conversation. Please try to suffer through it if you can; it's only a portion of the recording that is affected.

Topics include:

In today's hastily planned podcast dave has a shorter than expected conversation with gorkon. After that dave just sorta spirals out of control. Listeners beware, dave foolishly neglected to monitor his recording levels and there is a lot of clipped audio in this one. Please forgive him.

LLL63 addendum part III
Kernel compiling the old fashioned way (or like granny used to do it)

To be safe/cover the bases, make sure that these packages have been installed: kernel-package,build-essential,libncurses5-dev,libqt3-mt-dev,libqt3-headers, and module-assistant.

After downloading and extracting the kernel source tree into your /usr/src/ directory, create a symlink from the newly created directory to /usr/src/linux, then cd to /usr/src/linux/ and issue the following command as root:

make oldconfig

Select the default answers, or Y, N, or M as needs suit.

Next issue the following commands as root:

make dep (I don't think this command is necessary with kernel 2.6.x)

make clean

make bzImage

make modules

make modules_install

make install

You will also need to run this command:

mkinitramfs -o /boot/init-2.6.24.img 2.6.24

where 2.6.24 is the version of the kernel you just compiled.

Edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst file to include the new stanza necessary to boot your new kernel.

Note: If you recompile/rebuild a kernel from a kernel source tree directory where you have previously run any of the above commands, you will need to first run a make mrproper to tidy up the source tree before proceeding. ymmv
