Re: [Bug 295897] [NEW] installation of openafs with kernel 2.6.27-7-generic fails

2008-11-11 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Thanks for the remark. Though I just can roughly see the parallels.

Before I posted this bug report I tried for about 10h to get openafs 
running. These tries included the try to follow the instructions in 
README.modules. This included recompiling the kernel, which also 
failed:-) Unfortunately, I did not protokoll it. As the compilation took 
a long time, I will not repeat it. Sorry! Probably, I've set a flag 
wrongly due to insufficient Linux knowledge. I was very happy that I ve 
found the above cited for the user *semantically *simple algorithm:-)

Cheers,
L--

 Right, that's what README.modules says, roughly.  :)

Hm, could you point me at what in README.modules led you to think that you
should recompile your kernel?  I definitely want to fix that.  You should
never have to recompile your kernel.

Maybe because the make-kpkg instructions don't explain how to get a kernel
source tree?
