<note>
|
||||
<para>We recommend that you make a dated snapshot of
|
||||
your new <filename>/kernel</filename> called
|
||||
<filename>/kernel.YYMMDD</filename> after you get it
|
||||
working properly. Also back up your new
|
||||
<filename>/modules</filename> directory to
|
||||
<filename>/modules.YYMMDD</filename>. That way, if
|
||||
you make a mistake the next time you play with your
|
||||
configuration you can boot the backup kernel instead
|
||||
of having to fall back to
|
||||
<filename>kernel.GENERIC</filename>. This is
|
||||
particularly important if you are now booting from a
|
||||
controller that GENERIC does not support.</para>
|
||||
<para>The new <filename>kernel</filename> will installed
|
||||
to the <filename>/boot/kernel</filename> directory along
|
||||
with its modules, while the old kernel and its modules
|
||||
will be moved to the <filename>/boot/kernel.old</filename>
|
||||
directory, so if you make a mistake the next time you
|
||||
play with your configuration you can boot the previous
|
||||
version of your kernel.</para>
