TrinityOS currently reflects the building of both a 2.2.16 and also 2.0.38 kernels. If you didn't already know, Linux kernel numbering follows a rule:
- All EVEN numbered kernels (1.0, 1.2, 2.0, 2.2, 2.4, etc) are all BETA or stable (production) kernels. Beta kernels are usually locked out of having new features added to them so that the developers and concentrate on simply fixing bugs and making the code more stable. Latest numbered kernels are always the best to run.
- All ODD numbered kernels (.9, 1.1, 1.3, 2.1, 2.3, etc) are all ALPHA or test kernels. Alpha kernels are where new Linux features are added, tested, and debugged. After a specific "lockout" period announced by Linus, no more new features can be put into a given Alpha kernel generation. After this, the alpha kernel is simply fixed up for a while more and once the kernel is considered stable, it is moved to the next BETA kernel version and a new ALPHA kernel is started.
Be warned: Alpha kernel revs can be released on occasion that are unstable, cause data corruption, or even not compile at all. Like anything in the Linux world, these issues are fixed at a rapid rate and become more stable every day. As it stands, the latest 2.3.x+ kernels are quite stable and will be rolled into the 2.4.x kernel soon. After this, the 2.5.x Alpha kernel will be started up.
* Anyway, lets get down to compiling up a kernel. All initial steps to getting * the kernel sources and uncompression the kernel is in the previous section [required * since the IPPORTFW patches change the kernel a little]
There are several ways to configure a kernel:
- 2.2.x kernels:
The new 2.2.x kernels are the newer generation in Linus's kernels. They offer enhanced performance, better SMP functionality, etc. At the same time, they had to change some things compared to the 2.0.x kernels and thus broke things. If you are running an older Linux distribution that did NOT come with a 2.2.x kernel, you will have to upgrade at LEAST the following tools:
ftp://ftp.rge.com/pub/systems/linux/redhat/updates/5.2/kernel-2.2/i386/
dhcpcd-1.3.16-0.i386.rpm, initscripts-3.78-2.2.i386.rpm, ipchains-1.3.8-0.i386.rpm
modutils-2.1.121-0.i386.rpm, net-tools-1.50-0.i386.rpm, procinfo-15-0.i386.rpm
samba-2.0.0-0.i386.rpm, util-linux-2.9-0.i386.rpm
Personally, I highly recommend that you just install an entirely new Linux distribution that natively supports the 2.2.x kernels. This will save you a lot of time and suffering in the long run.
Below configs are for my hardware. Make changes to your config as required
2.2.x kernel setup:
NOTE: This kernel config reflects different hardware than documented in Section 2 of TrinityOS. This kernel is running on a Intel motherboard with:
An Intel Pentium 166Mhz CPU 128MB of RAM (2) 3Com 3c905 PCI Ethernet cards Adaptec 2940U SCSI controller Several IBM and Seagate SCSI HDs Matrox Millentium II PCI video card An additional (2)Serial / (1) Parallel I/O card
If you compiled a kernel in the past and got things running fine but now you want to compile up the newest available kernel, there is one cool trick you might want to know about.
Say I compiled up a 2.2.16 kernel on August 12th, 2000.

- [ OPTIONAL -- You only need to do this if you have an ancient SoundBlaster-type CDROM drive ]
- edit /usr/src/kernel/linux/include/linux/sbpcd.h (as of kernel 2.0.38)
- Roughly at line 77, verify the top most SB address and CDROM port is correct.
- Roughly at line 107, change the "#define DISTRIBUTION" variable to "0" to reflect that you have configured the sound drivers
- Roughly at line 121 and 128, change ALL eject line variable to "0" so the drives won't eject their CDs
Now we need to shift gears and jump to the PPP code installation to verify if there is any newer code in the PPP distribution than the kernel distribution.
- Kernel 2.0.35 didn't come with the new v1.16 3Com driver. Bummer. It was pulled because of problems but I haven't had any and there are a LOT of fixes in it. So, do the following:
- mv /usr/src/kernel/linux/drivers/net/3c509.c /usr/src/kernel/linux/drivers/net/3c509.c.orig
- Download the new driver from:
ftp://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/pub/linux/drivers/3c509.c
If, for some reason, the drive is not available, email me and I'll mail it to you.
