Re: [Cooker] how to compile a kernel? hehe
Ok, how in the @!#! do you guys compile the kernels for the distro? I need to get my orinoco pc-card working under pcmcia - if I try to recompile the kernel I get undefined symbols all over the place and I know I can use the standard 2.2.17 kernel, but I lose the ATA100 drivers, reiser, usb, and 3dfx. I could of course compile these in myself except that when trying to patch in reiser and usb together they don't play well. So I tried using the kernel source with 7.2 and where do you suppose I get an error on boot? loading the reiser mod from initrd (which I made) - undefined symbols. okay im not sure if the 2.4.0-test9 kernel has /can be patched for everything you need but if you don't have the dep tree correct you could get undefined symbols in a module with a dep. ie sb.o has a chain of modules starting with soundcore.o that define symbols in the chain. can reiser be compiled as part of the kernel?? (Y rather than M in *config) check module.dep in your modules directory (and force a refresh by removing it) Robert L Martin
