Hi ,
  I installed Red Hat 7.0, I am able to find the
  linux-2.2.16 in /usr/src

  These are the following steps I did to install
kernel 2.4:

  cd /usr/src
  #rm -r linux
   # rm -rf linux-2.2.16
   #tar -xvf  linux-2.4.0-test9.tar

  #cd /usr/src
#ls
 linux 
 redhat
 #mv  linux linux-2.4.0-test9
 #ln -s linux-2.4.0-test9 linux

  #ls
   linux->linux-2.4.0-test9
   linux-2.4.0-test9
   redhat
  
  #cd /usr/src/linux
  #make xconfig
  I just save & exit without changing the
configuration.
  #make dep
  #make clean
  #make bzImage
  #make modules
  #make modules_install

  I find that System.map is mapped to 2.4.0, ie.. new
  System-2.4.0-test9.map is created

  #cd /boot
  #ls
  #vmlinuz->vmlinuz-2.4.0-test9
  #cd /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot
  #cp bzImage /boot/vmlinuz
  
  #vi /etc/lilo.conf
  changed image from image = /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.16-22
to
  image = /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.0-test9

  #lilo
   linux
    dos

  when I boot linux

  The system hangs after messages:
  loading linux......
  uncompressing linux, booting linux kernel OK.

  The System hangs here.

  Please let me know where I am wrong

  with regards,
  Anil
