The debian patch is already included in the debian linux-source-2.6.12
package, so you don'ty need to re-apply them.

BTW, gcc-4.0 is also biarch.

And finally, you should try make-kpkg --subarch powerpc64, which should do the
right thing as far as gcc and cflags is concerned.

I would thus try :

  make-kpkg --subarch powerpc64 --initrd --revision=shyamal.1.0 kernel-image

Friendly,

Sven Luther

Hi Sven/all,

I'm trying to build the ppc64 kernel using the toolchain in sid
(gcc-3.4 is biarch now, right?) to isolate my problem . But I get this
very cryptic error (in a sid chroot) when applying the debian patches
and it has really stumped me. Any hints? 

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/linux-source-2.6.12$ MAKEFLAGS="CC=gcc-3.4 CFLAGS=-m64" 
make-kpkg --initrd --revision=custom.1.0 --added_patches debian kernel_image
# work around idiocy in recent kernel versions

  echo "Patch $patch processed fine"; \
  echo "$patch" >> applied_patches;   \
  else \
   echo "Patch $patch  failed.";  \
   echo "Hit return to Continue";  \
   read ans;   \
  fi;  \
  fi;  \

E: Can't patch to nonexistent revision  (wait until 2006)
Patch /usr/src/kernel-patches/all/2.6.12/apply/debian  failed.
Hit return to Continue
make: *** [stamp-debian] Interrupt

So, what am I to do to apply the patches in 2.6.12? I want to recreate
almost exactly the same kernel as the sid package (and use the hints
from benh in #323724).

Am I going hopelessly wrong someplace. This is kernel-package 9.006
from sid.

Cheers!
Shyamal
