Hi Jenny
The bzlilo places vmlinuz an System.map in root unless you go into the makefile and change the default. One thing I haven't tried is appending INSTALL_PATH=/boot to the make bzlilo stage - It might work.....
And yes, lilo is run after the vmlinuz is written - So make sure you have added your new kernel to lilo.conf first.
Do you want to try compiling a 2.4.18 kernel ???
Regards, Paul.
P.S. Can I pick your brains on Samba sometime ?

Happy spring, all! I've celebrated by doing my first kernel upgrade. Now, I have gone through all the make stuff, and ended up at make bzimage, with the intention of sticking the image on a floppy for testing. However I've come up with the message "warning: kernel is too large for standalone boot from floppy".
How advisable is it to just go ahead and "make install" at this stage? I have copied vmlinz-2.2.18 and config-2.2.18 to vmlinuxOLD and configOLD.
Also, is "make bzlilo" like "make install" but also tells lilo about the new kernel image?
Thanks! Jen.
