Installing Linux kernel 2.6.25.14 on RHEL 5.4
- by aaron
I have to install Linux kernel version 2.5.25.14 on a RHEL 5.4 server because of drive compatibility issues. I follow the RedHat "Building a Custom Kernel" instructions running the following:
$ make mrproper
$ make xconfig
$ make clean
$ make bzImage
$ make modules
$ make modules_install
$ make install
But I get a bunch of warnings like this:
WARNING: No module ehci-hcd found for kernel 2.6.25.24, continuing anyway
When I try to boot this kernel it is unable to mount the hard drive, and kernel panics on startup. As far as I can tell I'm using a standard configuration (I just accept the defaults and save a .config file). Is there something I'm missing? Thanks.
