Thanks,
Yum installed kernel-devel.i686 0:2.6.18-128.7.1.el5 OK
# cd /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ gets to directory OK and
# dir gives
build modules.dep modules.pcimap updates
extra modules.ieee1394map modules.seriomap weak-updates
kernel modules.inputmap modules.symbols
modules.alias modules.isapnpmap modules.usbmap
modules.ccwmap modules.ofmap source
# ls -la build gives
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 42 Nov 4 2007 build
-> ../../../usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-8.el5-i686
Is this OK?
so when I type hybrid_wl]# make -C/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build M='pwd'
why am I still getting
make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.18-8.el5/build: No such file or directory.
Stop.
Any suggestions gratefully received,
Andy
