Hi
While I can compile and create a kernel loadable module
as shown below, I get a kernel version mismatch in the
final result as indicated by the insmod command. Can
someone look at the steps below and tell me where I can
reconcile this difference.
Thank You...
Two days ago I had the same problem with RH 7.3. I'm not shure weather I
can help you, but my problem were the missing kernel-headers. Notice the
following deps:
gcc needs glibc-devel, which needs kernel-headers 2.2
But: a packet kernel-headers doesn't exist.
Therefore install
Dear list:
I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, but don't know what it is or how to
solve it. I've gotten to the make dep part of making a kernel kernel and
several dependencies seem unfulfilled.
In particular it cannot find stddef.h (which seems to be sitting in
/usr/include/linux)
and a file
I've written a Mini-HOWTO on compiling the kernel:
http://www.eclectic-cheval.net/linux/kr-mhowto.txt
I've posted it here for two reasons:
1) In case it will help, and
2) To get suggestions from those who know more than I do.
It's licensed under the FDL, so hack away.

Well, I took the path of least resistance and compiled a static

However, I'm still wondering why I'm having trouble building a modular

appropriate folder. Any thoughts?
