Folks, I haven't built a kernel to offten until now, but I grabbed version 2.6.10 and when I untarred it and ran make mrproper, I got the following error message. awk: cannot open /usr/src/linux-2.6.9/include/linux/version.h (No such file or directory) I checked and sure enough there is no version.h file. Now my current 2.6.7 kernel has this file and upon doing a cat on the file the 2.6.7 value is listed. I then checked the /usr/include/linux directory that Debian installed and found there was suc a file, but of course the kernel version there is something like 2.6.0. I am sure I'm just missing something here, but any thoughts would be appreciated as I'm not sure how this file gets created or if its supposed to be there any longer. Any thoughts appreciated. tia Scott
