Re: Problem Installation rtlinux. Please I need help!

There are actually a few more steps to making a new kernel than the 4 that
DH listed. To make a kernel, IIRC these are all the steps you have to do;

1.  Clean up the environment.  To do this, use
            make clean
or
        make mrproper
I'm not sure what the differences are and sometimes I do both since it
doesn't take that much longer

2.  Make the configuration file
        make config        # this is the most "primitive"
or
        make menuconfig    # this is what most people recommend
or
        make xconfig        # this is what I prefer -- it's really quite
equivalent to menuconfig but I like the format better

3.  Create the list of dependencies
        make dep

4.  Create the kernel image file itself
        make bzImage

5. Create any modules you configured
        make modules

6. Install the modules
        make modules_install

7.  Copy the kernel file to the boot partition.  For x86 systems, it's
        copy arch/i386/boot/bzImage   /boot/newkernel    # or any other name
you want to give it

8.  Edit the boot config file.  If you're using LILO, you have to edit
            {your favorite editor's name goes here}  /etc/lilo.conf
If you're using something else, look it up.

9.  Install the new boot configuration.  If you're using LILO, you have to
run
            /sbin/lilo
If you're using something else, look it up.


Now you can reboot the new kernel.  Once you do that, then you can make and
install the RTLinux stuff
