Hi !

What is the "Gentoo" way to go from a 2.4.20-gentoo-r9 to a 2.6.0 or
2.6.1 kernel ?
I also have a Nvidia graphic board.
Thanks.

Olivier

Oliver, at a terminal:

# emerge -s sources

....and pick the one you want to emerge & compile.

Then set it as your kernel.

I switched to 2.6 but came back to 2.4 because I found no way to get my
nvidia nforce2 nvnet work. I will wait another couple of months.
No other problem, easy upgrade.
