apt-get kernel 2.6 - hijinks - 2004-01-16

want to know how to install 2.6 via apt. Well its easy. Add the following line to your /etc/apt/sources.list file

rpm [/url][url=http://people.redhat.com]http://people.redhat.com arjanv/2.6 kernel

then run the following commands

Code:
apt-get update

apt-get install kernel#2.6.1-1.131

that was when 2.6.1-1.131 was the newest. You can get a complete listing by running

Code:
apt-get install kernel

NOTE: This was done on a fedora core1 box. RH 9 might have some depandancy issues :)

apt-get kernel 2.6 - hijinks - 2004-01-16

Ok I just installed it using RH 9.

You need to do an upgrade because it needs a version of mkinitrd and a few other rpms that aren't shipped with RH 9 but that apt-get site has them for download

Code:
apt-get update

apt-get upgrade

apt-get install kernel#2.6.1-1.131

apt-get kernel 2.6 - anyweb - 2004-01-22

ive tried this in fedora core release 1

and while the apt-get part worked perfectly, the kernel itself was a total disasater on my laptop (dell latitude c400)

it completelyhung during boot (after kudzu and some other services were started)

a reboot started fsck which FAILED and forced another reboot,

needless to say i tried on and off about 6 times and i could not get the kernel to work

(2.6.1.141)

so for me it was a disaster,

be careful !

cheers

apt-get kernel 2.6 - grep420 - 2004-01-22

No problems at all for me. I have done this on 9 and fedora.

apt-get kernel 2.6 - deraj - 2004-01-22

that's why you should just use gentoo, it's as easy as ...

Code:
emerge genkernel

emerge gentoo-dev-sources

genkernel --config

apt-get kernel 2.6 - grep420 - 2004-01-23

I can do it in a single line with redhat:

apt-get install kernel-smp#2.6.1-1.141

apt-get kernel 2.6 - deraj - 2004-01-25

apt-get schmat-get, but does you being able to do it in one command make you special?

apt-get kernel 2.6 - grep420 - 2004-01-26

no, just pointing out that redhat is easier than gentoo, and much less of pain to set up.

apt-get kernel 2.6 - robbin - 2009-10-08

Hi there, I wonder if someone could say why this has happened, I have updated Ubuntu Ibex to the Ubuntu Jaunty version via the update manager only the kernel says its still Ubuntu 8.10, kernel 2.6.27-14-generic, can I change this and how would l do that, feel like I read my eyes out! now I'm near to Boot and Nuke....thought I'd ask first.

Also when I start the terminal after the new install I get these two lines first.

bash: /home/china/.bashrc: line 102: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"'

bash: /home/china/.bashrc: line 103: syntax error: unexpected end of file

robbins@desktop:~$

I have took some screen shots of other errors on this install, still abit new but if you got time I'm all ears, thanks again

apt-get kernel 2.6 - anyweb - 2009-10-08

did you reboot yet ? kernel updates require a reboot
