Did you copy the updated RPMs into the Mandrake/RPMS, Mandrake/RPMS2, Mandrake/RPMS3 directories? What do and actually refer to? I'm having a hell of a job getting this to work. I added an extra directory for plf and contrib RPMS and ended up with 6 ISOs but many files were rejected because of missing dependencies. Also the 1st CD ISO is not made which contains the kernel. I'm not actually using Cooker but want to include all "update" RPMs. Any advice would be much appreciated. Sharrea -- Help Microsoft stamp out piracy - give Linux to a friend today

Same problem here with floppy formatted to 1680 KB (fdformat /dev/fdu1680), except I don't get the "No setup signature found" message.

OK, not Mandrake. Perhaps kernel.org?

According to the developer who ported the driver to linux, Telemann (hardware manufacturer) did not make a full source release of their driver and unfortunately there is a binary component (independent of kernel interface) that cannot be compiled. He has approached Telemann about getting this library recompiled or releasing the source code, but they have not yet responded. So it looks like I'll have to go back to an ancient kernel. Hopefully I can use the 9.1 kernel-source-2.4.21-0.25mdk.i586.rpm with 9.2. Thanks very much for your advice Buchan. Sharrea -- Help Microsoft stamp out piracy - give Linux to a friend today
[Cooker] kernel-source bug in 9.2
Hi Not sure if this is the right place to ask/report ?? Is this a bug? Trying to compile a kernel with gcc-2.96 using: kernel-source-2.4.22-18mdk config from current install of kernel-i686-up-4GB-2.4.22.18mdk-1-1mdk Soltek SL-75KAV motherboard AMD Athlon 1GHz 1024 MB SDRAM nVidia 64MB GTS Pro graphics I get the following error: make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.22-18mdk/arch/i386/mm' make all_targets make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.22-18mdk/arch/i386/mm' gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.4.22-18mdk/include -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -pipe -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=i686 -nostdinc -iwithprefix include -DKBUILD_BASENAME=init -c init.c -o init.o init.c:463: parse error before `_Bool' init.c:464: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype init.c: In function `one_highpage_init': init.c:465: `bad' undeclared (first use in this function) init.c:465: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once init.c:465: for each function it appears in.) init.c:466: `pfn' undeclared (first use in this function) init.c:467: `page' undeclared (first use in this function) init.c:471: `bad_ppro' undeclared (first use in this function) init.c: In function `free_pages_init': init.c:529: `_Bool' undeclared (first use in this function) init.c:529: parse error before `bad' init.c:530: `bad' undeclared (first use in this function) make[2]: *** [init.o] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.22-18mdk/arch/i386/mm' make[1]: *** [first_rule] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.22-18mdk/arch/i386/mm' make: *** [_dir_arch/i386/mm] Error 2 Do I need to report this as a bug to MandrakeSoft Bugzilla?
