Hi Guys
I'm trying to add the patch mentioned in this thread to the plain Centos
kernel
http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2008-August/062845.html
I've followed the directions on the wiki for building a custom kernel, but
after applying all the patches it fails with:
make[1]: *** [nonint_oldconfig] Error 4
make: *** [nonint_oldconfig] Error 2
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.74263 (%prep)
RPM build errors:
Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.74263 (%prep)
Can anyone help with this? Or is there an easier way to apply the patch, as
I'm not wanting to change the config of the kernel in any way?
Just wanted to make sure you ran the rpmbuild command with
--target=`uname -m` ? Or did you attempt to build it for an arch that
is different from the running kernel?
Yes, i was following the wiki guide which uses that command
Now...
This bug looks quite nasty and seems to be affecting a good number of
people. There is a long discussion thread on the Scientific Linux and
someone there is offering patched SL kernels:

In a case like this, Johnny Hughes used to build a patched version of
CentOS kernels. Seems like he is not available at this moment. Would
some other CentOS dev be able to do this for affected CentOS users?
That would be brilliant..

cheers
