i want to upgrade my kernel from 2.6.23 to 2.6.31. So i upgrade my grml on my external usb-harddisk as follows:
- strat grml
- edit /etc/apt/sources-list and set the germl and debian to unstable
- aptitude dist-upgrade
- install the kernel 2.6.31-grml wth this modules as described in an
earlier mail from mika 5. update-initramfs -c -t -k 2.6.31-grml
6 starting from dos with linld097 image=vml2631 initrd=i2631.gz "cl=root=/ dev/sda5 speakup.(or _)synth=apollo blind nodhpc vga=normal"
With "speakup.(or _)synth=apollo" you mean neither "speakup.synth=apollo" nor "speakup_synth=apollo" work for you?
But the system will not start. If i unpack the initrd-file, i did not found the speakup-modules.
The speakup modules aren't part of the initramfs but instead are loaded on request in userspace.
What must i do to become speakup to work with my apollo-synthesizer?
What does happen if you manually invoke 'modprobe speakup_apollo' after booting? You have speakup-modules-2.6.31-grml installed on your box, right?
