Hi, it's me again...

I have modified the kernel and now it does not boot any longer. *argh*
It seems that aboot cannot decompress it or something in this way. All
three lights flash for a moment on the keyboard (as it does it every
time the kernel is loaded by aboot) and that was it; output of aboot
looks like this:

aboot: loading compressed boot/vmlinuz-2.4.19.gz...
aboot: zero-filling 20224 bytes at 0xfffffc0000667b30
aboot: starting kernel boot/vmlinuz-2.4.19.gz with arguments
root=/dev/sda3

I have never built a kernel on an alpha system before and are very
unfamilar with the boot procedure. It seems that I have forgotten
something very necessary, or haven't I?

I compiled it with make dep clean boot and after building the core, the
modules with make modules && make modules_install and after all depmod
-a.

Regards
Björn
