I recompiled kernel linux-2.4.20 on my system. When I rebooted I recieved the message "No setup signature found". What does this mean and how can I fix it?
I used the following steps to compile the kernel;
1. Change to the directory /usr/src
2. Downloaded the kernel into the /usr/src directory.
3. mkdir linux-2.4.20
4. ln -s linux-2.4.20 linux
5. tar -xzvf linux-2.4.20
6. cd /usr/src/linux
7. make menuconfig
8. Here I configure the kernel to my hearts content.
9. make dep ; make clean; make zImage ; make modules
10. cp /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/zImage /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.20
11. cp /usr/src/linux/system.map /boot/system.map-2.4.20
12. make modules_install
13. vi /etc/lilo.conf
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.20
label=linux-2.4.20
root=/dev/hda2
read-only
14. ./lilo
15. shutdown -r now
16. This is the message I recieve " No setup signature found ".
