My guess is you're missing BLOCK. If BLOCK is not set see you'll see SCSI device support in the Device Drivers page of "make menuconfig". And if BLOCK is set you'll see SCSI device support ---> (Yes, the difference is rather subtle.) Then you should see a non-empty page if you select that: [ ] RAID Transport Class (NEW) [ ] SCSI device support (NEW) (And, yes, there are two entries labeled "SCSI device support".) You can (probably) set BLOCK in the main menu under [ ] Enable the block layer Hope this helps, Paul Bolle ___ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@kernelnewbies.org http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies

You can find out dependencies for needed options by pressing '/' (to search) and then typing your option. 06.03.2015, 09:48, "robert rottermann" : > Hi there, > I am working trough a book on embeded systems (embeded linux by J.Quade) > There in the chapter about building a new kernel is suggested to select > Device > Drivers-> SCSI device support -> a number of subslections. > > Now, when I start menuconfig I find Device Drivers-> SCSI device support, but > selecting it produces an empty page. > > Why is that so? > Do I have to add other elements to the configuration process? > > I am using linux-3.19. > > Thanks > robert > > ___ > Kernelnewbies mailing list > Kernelnewbies@kernelnewbies.org > http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies ___ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@kernelnewbies.org http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies

menuconfig: can not select scsi device support
Hi there, I am working trough a book on embeded systems (embeded linux by J.Quade) There in the chapter about building a new kernel is suggested to select Device Drivers-> SCSI device support -> a number of subslections. Now, when I start menuconfig I find Device Drivers-> SCSI device support, but selecting it produces an empty page. Why is that so? Do I have to add other elements to the configuration process? I am using linux-3.19. Thanks robert ___ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@kernelnewbies.org http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
