I believe that RedHat kernel rpms have a built-in


post install tool that calls /sbin/new-kernel-pkg


whichÂ*in turn calls /sbin/grubby to update the


grub configuration file.Â*


So examinie the built-in scriptsÂ*in a vendor kernel


rpm to see how they do this.

Subject: after install of new Linux ISO with new kernel&initrd, could not boot






hi, dear experts
Â*
When I made my own centOS Linux ISO with new compiledÂ*kernel and initrd.img by myself. I met one problem.
there is some relation with anaconda, so i turn to ask for help here.
Â*
HereÂ*are steps:
1）build one kernel RPM with compiled kernel and initrd.img in the ISO.
2) when install the new centOS LinuxÂ*ISO, the installation is fine.
3)Â*after installation, it is not able to reboot, because grub "menu.lst" is broken. There is no "initrd initrd.img" line
Â*Â* in menu.lst file. The OS could not boot normally.
My questions:
Q)Â*since the menu.lst/grub.conf is generated by anaconda, I am wondering that there is something wrong when the
anaconda generating the grub menu.lst? Is that something wrong with my kernel name induced this ?

Â*
Many thanks for your help.
Â*
BRs
