Bug 47770 – cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage ../../../boot/kernel-2.6.5 fails

• Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME
• Product: Gentoo Release Media

[Description Thomas SMETS 2004-04-13 16:45:37 UTC]

I got the source from 2.6.5
Change the soft link (/usr/src/linux) to point to the right directory ( linux -> /usr/src/linux-2.6.5-gentoo/ ).
Made a :
   make clean
   make 
   make modules_install
While make module... was running, I tried to copy the freshly built kernel to the /boot of the chrooted partition with 

cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/kernel-2.6.5

but the system replied : 
   livecd linux # cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage ../../../boot/kernel-2.6.5
   cp: cannot create regular file `../../../boot/kernel-2.6.5': Read-only file system

Doing a : 
   livecd linux # cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/kernel-2.6.5
   cp: cannot create regular file `/boot/kernel-2.6.5': Read-only file system

Returned the same error ...
I will now do a 'clean mrproper' before trying to rebuild the Kernel after a new make menuconfig !

\T,

Is your boot-partition mounted writable?

please try mount -o remount,rw /boot

please post the output of mount

Rebooting the PC & mounting the partition :
          mount -t reiserfs /dev/hda2 /mnt/gentoo
gave no direct Error & I can access the freshly build FS

reassigning back to bug-wranglers - this is no livecd-bug

Reassigning back to the wranglers - this is no kernel bug either...

Closing an obsolete bug.
