,

so i want to minimize the kernel for install it on a small computer speedly...

for that i launched /mdk/bin/menuStart and done

# choose "clientISO"
# choose "kernel"
# choose "Download", "V2.6.8"
# I select the kernel 2.6.8
# wait until the kernel is downloaded and extracted
# choose "ConfigureOld"
# choose "m23-bootimage-linux-2.6.8.conf"
# choose "Menuconfig"
# I configure the kernel with few options who are essentials
# exit menuconfig
# store the configuration
# choose "Compile"
# choose "Copy"
# exit current menu
# choose "build"

and when i want to build the image he shows message errors and

"mknbi-linux" : command not found

then he returns on the menu.....
the image does she copy in the right repertory, and can i choose it when i will want to choose the kernel of my client ??,

thanks for your help and answers. Smile

and if i done this operations, when i will want to choose

The kernel you make with this menu is the kernel used for booting the client over the network and not the kernel installed on the client.

If you want to use a selfmade kernel try the following steps, try

* add a new line to package sources list you are using

deb http://<serverIP>/<yourKernelDir> ./

No, add the line in the editor in the webinterface under "Packages" -> "Package sources". Load the package source you want to use, add the line and save it.
