Reinstalling a precompiled SuSE kernel

Situation:

You have compiled your own kernel and would like to reinstall one of the SuSE Linux original precompiled kernels.

Procedure:

  1. First you must reinstall the kernmod package, Series a, Base system. This is accomplished from YaST. You must have CDROM #1 in the drive Choose/Install packages -> Change/Create configuration -> Series A -> kernmod package.

  2. Then you need to select the kernel. This is also done from within YaST. System Administration -> Kernel and boot configuration -> Select boot kernel. From this window, select the appropriate boot kernel for your system.

  3. If you use LILO to boot your system, allow lilo to update the master boot record.
    If you use Loadlin, copy the newly installed kernel /boot/vmlinuz to the appropriate directory on your DOS partition.
