How to upgrade latest kernel (2.6.34) in Fedora12

Hi everyone

I am trying to install a new stable kernel-linux-2.6.34 on a my Fedora machine but i keep getting the following Install error


Here are the commands I executed: make clean
make
make modules_install
With the above commands I did not encounter any errors, but when I used the make install command I got the following statements.



INSTALL /lib/firmware/mts_edge.fw
INSTALL /lib/firmware/edgeport/boot.fw

INSTALL /lib/firmware/edgeport/boot2.fw
INSTALL /lib/firmware/edgeport/down.fw
INSTALL /lib/firmware/edgeport/down2.fw

sh /home/server/linux-2.6.34/arch/x86/boot/install.sh 2.6.34 arch/x86/boot/bzImage \

System.map "/boot"
Looking for deps of module ata_piix
No module ata_piix found for kernel 2.6.34, aborting.

Here you are not installing the kernel, But rather it is compilation
of kernel.

It seems your environment is not ok,

Try to follow below link.

Why not to choose RPM instead of this long method ?
