[SOLVED] First time trying to update the kernel

[maybl8]

I tried updating the kernel for the first time and am getting errors.
I tried using the steps in the gentoo manual. That didn't work so I tried this guide:

Code: Select all

https://blog.paranoidpenguin.net/2016/11/gentoo-kernel-upgrade-checklist/

When I run:

Code: Select all

make olddefconfig

I get this error:

Code: Select all

gentoo /usr/src/linux # make olddefconfig
Makefile:2084: !!!! WARNING !!!!

Then I run this command:

gentoo /usr/src/linux # make && make modules_install

gentoo /usr/src/linux # 

So I have messed this up.
How do I get this corrected and get the kernel updated?
Current kernel:

Code: Select all

gentoo /usr/src/linux # uname -r
6.6.41-gentoo-dist

[Zucca]

Code: Select all

gentoo /usr/src/linux # make olddefconfig
Makefile:2084: !!!! WARNING !!!!
Makefile:2085: This kernel was configured and installed by the package manager.
Makefile:2086: "make" should not be run manually here.
Makefile:2087: See also: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Distribution_Kernel
Makefile:2088: See also: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Kernel/Configuration

You're using sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel right?
If yes, then you should only need to let portage update your kernel.
sys-kernel/*-kernel packages are "more automated", if you want to go the manual way, then you'd need to have (for example) sys-kernel/gentoo-sources installed. sys-kernel/*-sources will only install the sources for a kernel.

My suggestion:

• let portage update your kernel
• you can later then experiment (learn) to use *-sources packages to do in manually if you have interest in that
• also note that sys-kernel/*-kernel (non -bin) packages can be configured too via /etc/kernel/config.d/

[maybl8]

So if I run this command and get this result does it mean it updated the kernel:

Code: Select all

gentoo /usr/share/locale # emerge -p -uvDU @world

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
Dependency resolution took 14.06 s (backtrack: 0/20).


Total: 0 packages, Size of downloads: 0 KiB

but uname -r doesn't show the 6.11 kernel.

[pietinger]

but uname -r doesn't show the 6.11 kernel.

Installing a kernel is two-phased: First you need the new kernel and then you have to make sure that it is also booted.
I guess you are using a bootmanager (e.g. grub). Here you have two choices:
1. Let portage update the grub menu with the use-flag "grub". See more here: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Installkernel OR
2. Do it yourself: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/GRUB#Insta ... new_kernel

[Zucca]

but uname -r doesn't show the 6.11 kernel.

That command shows the running kernel.
By running eshowkw gentoo-kernel you can list what versions are available for which architecture and if those versions are marked as stable or unstable (or not keyworded at all).
6.11 seems to be marked as ~ (unstable). If you're running stable system, then portage will offer you the latest stable kernel (marked with +).

[pietinger]

I guess he is already on 6.11.6 (and the update to it was done before) because of:

Code: Select all

Makefile:2089: !!!! WARNING !!!!
/usr/src/linux-6.11.6-gentoo-dist/Makefile:2084: !!!! WARNING !!!!

[maybl8]

So should this command be:

Code: Select all

kernel-install add linux-6.11.6-gentoo-dist

When I run it I get:

Code: Select all

gentoo /usr/src/linux # kernel-install add linux-6.11.6-gentoo-dist
Failed to parse kernel image file '/usr/src/linux/linux-6.11.6-gentoo-dist': Is a directory

[Zucca]

You have wrong syntax, as far I can see. At least according to wiki article.
I don't have experience with kernel-install as I only use installkernel.

[maybl8]

If I run installkernel I see this:

Code: Select all

gentoo /usr/src/linux # 

Moderator note: Fixed some long lines. -- Banana

Code: Select all

SYNOPSIS
       installkernel version zImage System.map [directory]

Since you clearly do have sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel installed it should have normally installed your kernel already.
If not, then make sure your /boot partition is mounted. Then let portage run the the kernel installation for you by running

Code: Select all

emerge --config =sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel-6.6.41

... I assumed you're trying to install version 6.6.41 kernel. Change the version number if needed.

The --config switch for gentoo-kernel package runs kernel-install or installkernel based on your configuration. Most likely it'll run kernel-install since you have systemd profile selected. At least it's the default on systemd profiles.

[maybl8]

I forgot about this post. I have completed some updates and now I am here:

Code: Select all

Available kernel symlink targets:

current kernel

Code: Select all

Linux gentoo 6.6.41-gentoo-dist #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Thu Jul 18 14:37:53 -00 2024 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10510U CPU @ 1.80GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

At this point I don't know what command to do next to update the kernel to 6.11.10.

[Nowa]

Please run 'emerge --config gentoo-kernel' or 'emerge --config gentoo-kernel-bin' and share with us the output.

[maybl8]

after running emerge --config gentoo-kernel-bin

It generated a lot of lines of code. Below is at the end. I didn't want to put it all here.

What boot loader are you using? Your log shows that the kernel is being installed for grub or another compat layout boot loader, but the grub.cfg is not being updated. What is the output of 'emerge -1p sys-kernel/installkernel'?

Please also share the entire log, you cut of the important part at the beginning.

Code: Select all

gentoo /home/demo # emerge -1p sys-kernel/installkernel

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!

Is there an easy way without trying to highlight all the code in the terminal to get the entire log?

installkernel is not configured with support for any bootloader, which bootloader do you intend to use? Please enable the corresponding flag and re-run 'emerge --config'.

After I run the config again , what is the next command to run.

There is no next command to run.

I have already repeatedly asked you which bootloader you are using, I cannot help you if I do not know what is going to load the kernel.

As I said, the kernel is successfully installed but installkernel is not configured to update the configuration of a bootloader, this is likely why the new kernel is not being loaded after rebooting.

[maybl8]

Sorry I included emerge --info to show the USE flag that I used for the bootloader.
It has been a while since I installed an I am not sure which boot loader I installed. Is there a way to see which one I installed?
Thank you for having patience with me as I try to learn Gentoo. This kernel update process has been challenging for sure.
I need to start writing down the steps so I can run through them more easily.
After we get the boot loader question solved will I be able to complete the steps to get Gentoo to use the new kernel because it hasn't used it yet.
I still see.

[...] I am not sure which boot loader I installed. Is there a way to see which one I installed?

Do a "efibootmgr" and post the output. (If you dont have this application do a "emerge -vD efibootmgr" before)

This shows that you are not using any bootloader. You can do this (i.e. have UEFI load the kernel directly) but to have installkernel update the UEFI Boot list automatically you'll have to enable the "efistub" USE flag for sys-kernel/installkernel. That being said, I recommend following again the bootloader section of the handbook and choosing either grub, systemd-boot or refind as the bootloader, this is simpler and more robust. All steps are documented in the handbook. Please do not try to follow guides other then the handbook and Gentoo wiki, most of it is horribly out of date.
