Hi Brad,

After installing the program and setting the settings and after doing: sudo make-kpkg clean
sudo make-kpkg –initrd kernel_image kernel_headers,

I did: cd ..
sudo dpkg -i linux-image-2.6.24.5-grsec*.deb linux-headers-2.6.24.5-grsec*.deb and rebooted.

The boot process now hangs with the following message:

[ 17.314089] grsec: denied use of ioperm() by /sbin/usplash[usplash:1190] uideuid:0/0 gid/egid:0/0, parent /scripts/init-top/usplash[usplash:1168] uid/euid:/0 gid/egid:0/0

BusyBox v1.1.3 (Debian 1:1.1.3-5ubuntu12) Built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

(initramfs)

What to do? Can I salvage this system from a Live CD? Ubuntu 8.04.

Thank you.

Looks like you should have left the "disable privileged i/o" option disabled in your config.
