 the

 If you are building from slink, you need the kernel-source-sparc-2.2.1
 source package.
 
I am using that src pkg...but still no luck...

Problems compiling a kernel on a Sparc 1+

1999-06-01 Thread Troy Tuttle
I just came into a Sparc 1+ and instantly installed Linux upon it...(via
floppies) and I then proceeded to update the kernel image to 2.2.1 so I can
install all the new versions of libc6 and such for compiling a 2.2.x
kernelI got a kernel source for 2.2.9 and when I try to make config or
menuconfig I get a segfault and the help screen for ld.so comes
uptelling me that I probably didnt mean to run this...I also tried with
2.2.1 and same problemcould anyone get me on the right track?
