THANKS

Never did it but you have to edit the source code then compile the kernel.

Why do you want to do that?

Well to recompile the kernel go in the directory where the kernel source is installed ie. /usr/src/linux <ver>
type
 
 

Code:

make menuconfig

now ull get a menu like structure then choose ur config and save and exit
type

Code:

make bzImage

this will compile the kernel
type

Code:

make modules

then type

Code:

make modules_install

type

Code:

make install

for installing the new compiled kernell

neo's instructions work for the 2.4 kernels.  2.6 kernel are a bit different.  There are actually fewer commands for the compile.  The config works for both 2.4 and 2.6 kernel.
