Description Allan Graves 2004-10-19 08:49:15 UTC

The code listing 11 shows:
# cp arch/alpha/boot/vmlinux.gz /boot/
# cp System.map /boot/System.map-2.4.24

in the latest 2.4.21-r12, vmlinux.gz is not created.  instead, vmlinux is created in the /usr/src/linux directory.  If you would like to have it compressed, a manual gzip is necessary.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.make dep && make vmlinux  on alpha platform
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
vmlinux was created in the /usr/src/linux dir, not a vmlinux.gz in the
arch/alpha/boot/ dir.
