I downloaded the Linux kernel version 3.6.10 from http://kernel.org. I was on an Ubuntu Linux when I opened the .tar
file to a separate partition of 30GB. My ideal aim is to have my current Ubuntu Linux in one partition and the new Linux in another partition.
I did a make
and make install
on the new linux
directory. It writes additions into the main GRUB. When I choose the OS from the GRUB menu during booting, I see the Linux birds two of them in the left corner of my screen. and the screen scrolls. It looks like it is installing, but at some point, the scroll seems to repeat itself continuously as if to go into a loop and will not stop. No installation takes place.
What should I expect on the screen as information/message stating installation is complete?
I use a Dell core 2 duo mobile laptop.
