Some please help me (again).
I was trying to patch my kernel from 2.0.34 to 2.0.37.
First I backed up my existing source tree (from which I have compiled
several kernels with no problems).
Then I downloaded and installed the patches (in order) according to the
README in /usr/src/linux. Checking for *.reg or # files revealed no
problems so I assumed the patches were good.
I then ran:
make mrproper
make xconfig
make dep
make clean, and finally
make zImage
which gives me the following errors:
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.0.34/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -
O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strength-reduce -pipe -m486 -malign-loops=2 -ma
lign-jumps=2 -malign-functions=2 -DCPU=586 -c -o init/main.o init/main.c
In file included from init/main.c:19:
/usr/src/linux-2.0.34/include/linux/config.h:4: linux/autoconf.h: No such
file or directory
init/main.c: In function `get_options':
init/main.c:269: warning: subscript has type `char'
make: *** [init/main.o] Error 1
After trying this a few times I removed the patched tree, restored the
original sources and tried to compile again with the same errors.
Anybody have a clue as to what I've broken?
TIA,
David
