If the OP wants or needs to build linux-rt packages from source at least some of those packages are needed, installing all of them doesn't harm: apt-get update apt-get install fakeroot build-essential crash kexec-tools makedumpfile kernel-package kernel-wedge apt-get install libncurses5 libncurses5-dev libelf-dev asciidoc binutils-dev You could run more than one job, e.g. export CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=2 Replace the kernel and patch with the kernel you want to build: wget https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/linux-foo_bar.tar.bz2 wget https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/3.8/older/patch-foo_bar_rt.patch.bz2 Extracting and patching: tar -jxvf linux-foo_bar.tar.bz2 mv linux-foo_bar linux-foo_bar_rt cd linux-foo_bar_rt bzip2 -dc ../patch-foo_bar_rt.patch.bz2 | patch -p1 cp /boot/config-from_an_existing_kernel .config When running "make oldconfig" care about rt settings: make oldconfig Build: make-kpkg clean make-kpkg --initrd kernel-image kernel-headers Then install the kernel and headers with "dpkg -i". It might be better to build with fakeroot, but there was a time when it didn't work, hence I usually build as root. Assumed the links in to the headers in /lib should be missing, link by command line: ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-foo_bar_rt /lib/modules/foo_bar_rt/build ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-foo_bar_rt /lib/modules/foo_bar_rt/source You only need the headers to build vbox modules, proprietary graphics drivers and similar. -- "Aber beklecker nicht das Sofa, Sofa!" - Frank Zappa _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
