The location of the header files, not libraries. And -I is not the same as -i > ~/linux-2.6.39.3/kernel the file is in this place (acct.c). > Could you give me form of compile command it can be like this > gcc -i ~/linux-2.6.39.3/kernel acct.c -o acct As Axel said on the gcc-help list, you cannot compile the kernel like that, acct.c is only one small part of a much larger system. You need to use the makefiles generated by the kernel configuration process, which contain the "recipes" for compiling the pieces of the kernel and linking them together. You should probably start with something simpler than the Linux kernel.
