So, the kernel I grabbed from git doesn't seem to boot.

yum install git ('cause it didn't have it on the HN)
cd /usr/src
git clone git://git.openvz.org/pub/linux-2.6.24-openvz
cd linux-2.6.24-openvz
zcat /proc/config.gz >.config
make oldconfig (because I'm paranoid)
make -j2
(was successful
make modules_install

Backed up the old kernel

cd /boot
mv vmlinuz-2.6.24-ovz005.1 vmlinuz-2.6.24-ovz005.1.old
mv vmlinux-2.6.24-ovz005.1 vmlinux-2.6.24-ovz005.1.old
mv System.map-ovz005.1 System.map-ovz005.1.old

Then installed the new kernel:

cp /usr/src/linux-2.6.24-openvz/arch/i386/boot/bzImage vmlinuz-2.6.24-ovz005.1
cp /usr/src/linux-2.6.24-openvz/System.map System.map-ovz005.1

I didn't move or replace the initrd. Note that I moved the vmlinux (not vmlinuz), but didn't replace it.

Kernel seems to panic and won't boot (though I can't tell any details as it's in the datacenter and I'm half way across the country from it. Wink )

Did I not compile this baby correctly?

Thanks,
Keith
