Finally took the plunge to compile SMP kernel. downloaded the vanilla linux-2.6.25 sources from ftp.kernel.org downloaded the all-in-one-patch from grml.org applied the patches (no failures seen) compiled the kernel with the commandi (in source directory): fakeroot make-kpkg clean fakeroot make-kpkg -append-to-version="-smp" kernel-image modules-image
compiles with quite few warnings (too many to list) and creates .deb file
installed the .deb file with dpkg -i (system does boot with -smp kernel..)
I have a question on entries in /lib/modules/2.6.15-grml-smp some directory entries that exist in /lib/modules/2.6.15-grml (drivers, extra, net etc.) are not created in /lib/modules/2.6.15-grml-smp (only kernel directory is cerated)
Is it normal? Is the -smp kernel using some modules from /lib/modules/2.6.15-grml or did I make the kernel/modules wrong?
