hello all,
just a few minutes back I tried to compile a kernel by using make menuconfig.
it is giving so many errors that I can't even post on this list.
what could be the problem?
am I missing some packages on my ubuntu 6.06 server?
I have the build-esssential package installed which probably has
installed glib libc 6 etc along with gcc 4 and make.
now I want to knwo what else is remaining?
it appears to me that even ncursis is also installed although I am not
quite sure of the same.
I have linux2.6.16.18 kernel source which I downloaded from kernel.org
since I needed a vanila kernel.
any suggestions?

apt-get install kernel-package ncurses-dev fakeroot wget bzip2

make mrproper
make menuconfig
make dep
make-kpkg clean
fakeroot make-kpkg --revision=custom.1.0.kernel
dpkg -i <kernel-image>.deb

Life would have been a lot more easier if we could  look at the source code.
