>>> Andreas Bloch [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] replied on Saturday, February 15, 2003 5:39 PM Wrong. Use "apt-get source kernel-image-2.4.18-bf2.4". However, your request ist pointless, what you need to get most modules compiled are the kernel headers, which you can get with "apt-get install kernel-headers-2.4.18-bf2.4". Point your module building system to /usr/src/kernel-headers-2.4.18-bf2.4/include then. >>> David Turetsky, following the wise advise of Andreas, got the >>> following output: checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking for gawk... no checking for mawk... mawk checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... yes checking build driver for...
