Hey all

Would anyone be able to tell me how to do:

*step 2 (or step 4, there are two step 2s)

apply alloc_h.patch

*step 3 (or step 5, there are two step 5s) (I have the 2.6.9-1.ydl.8 kernel, does that mean i need to do this step?)

apply sheep.patch *only* if you are using linux-2.6 kernel headers, i.e., you changed /usr/include/linux and /usr/include/asm. If you have
not updated the kernel include files that came with YDL-4.0, you do not
need to apply this patch.


*step 5 (uncomment? do yo mean get rid of the "" marks?)

edit mol-0.9.71-config
uncomment CONFIG_TAP and CONFIG_SHEEP

I am a newbie so please understand. I havent been able to get MOL to work in this release and YDL 3. I gave up because i got a error or module missing when i tested the istallation like it says to on the MOL web site and the solution to the problem was no where to be found. I only found two other people with the same problem like me.

Thanks

(1) Get the MOL SRPM from a source CD or YDL site and then install /
unpack it using:

        rpm -ivh  mol-0.9.71-0.ydl.1.src.rpm


(2) cd /usr/src/yellowdog/SOURCES

(3) unpack the gzipped tar file

        tar zxvf mol-0.9.71.tgz


(2) apply alloc_h.patch

(3) apply sheep.patch *only* if you are using linux-2.6 kernel headers,
i.e., you changed /usr/include/linux and /usr/include/asm. If you have
not updated the kernel include files that came with YDL-4.0, you do not
need to apply this patch.

(4) repackage the source

        tar zcvf mol-0.9.71.tgz  mol-0.9.71

(5) edit mol-0.9.71-config
uncomment CONFIG_TAP and CONFIG_SHEEP

(6) Build MOL RPM's
        cd /usr/src/yellowdog/SPECS
        rpmbuild -bb mol.spec

(7) Reinstall MOL RPM's
        rpm -e mol mol-kmods

        cd /usr/src/yellowdog/RPMS/ppc

        rpm -ivh mol-0.9.71-0.ydl.1.ppc.rpm \
                 mol-kmods-0.9.71-0.ydl.1.ppc.rpm
