Hello friends,
I wanted to build kernel - for fun,for learning basically - and installed
kernel source-2.4.22-1.2194.nptl from freshrpms site through sybnaptic. In
my attempt to build it, I faced two problems.
1. As explained in KERNEL-HOW TO, if I " make mrproper " first step, I
can't ' make dep ' after configuration.Appears /include/linux/autoconf.h
gets deleted and 'make' complains about no rule to build.
2. I could overcome above problem by skipping the step. I carefully
configured the kernel. This is not my first attempt at it and I understand
it a bit. 'make dep ' ' make clean ' went smoothly. At the stage of ' make
bzImage ' I invariably see lot of ' undefined reference to xxxx ' errors.
May be, I made some choices logically inconsistent, not carried
throughout.Or could there be something else which went wrong ? I have
installed kernel alone as synaptic report all dependencies met.
