Building New Kernel

Description

Hi,

I'm currently using Fedora Core 10 as guest on WindowsXP host machine.

I'm trying to build a kernel myself. I downloaded the corresponding source kernel-2.6.27.5-117.fc10.src.rpm

I copied the following from the virtual machine to my kernel sources.

  1. config-2.6.27.5-117.fc10.i686
  2. Makefile

There after i build the kernel using command "make bzImage" The image was successfully built. Hence i copied it to /boot folder and made the changes to grub.conf to boot the newly built kernel.

However when i try to boot the new kernel i'm getting following error.

"error 13 invalid or unsupported executable format"

Can you please let me know how to proceed further.

Awaiting your response.

This is not a VirtualBox bug, even if you execute this in a VirtualBox VM. You might want to ask the forums (forums.virtualbox.org) but I would rather prefer if you could directly ask the Fedora guys what you did wrong.
