8.Copy the new kernel image to the boot directory. In the following example, newsmp is the label for the kernel image.

#cd arch/i386/boot

#cp bzImage /boot/newsmp

image=/boot/newsmp

label=newsmp

root=/dev/hda5 (This is the location of the boot partition on your system.)

In the above example, the lines tell the Linux boot loader to load the new kernel image called newsmp in /boot and mount the root partition using device /dev/hda5.

10.Change default=linux or default=linux-up to default=newsmp.

11.Load the new boot configuration by typing the following:

#lilo

newsmp *

12.Restart the system.

13.The new kernel image containing the qla2x00 driver is now the default boot image.
