Kernel 2.5.7 compilation

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,
I'm trying to compile kernel 2.5.7 on a RedHat 7.2 environment (I'd like to
try preemptive kernel).
Which compiler is the right choice: kgcc (egcs 2.91.66), gcc (2.96) or gcc3
(3.04)?

I tried several times with gcc3, the compilation seems to work, but I got
these problems:
1) I don't know if I've to use 'make mrproper'
2) Strange warning after 'make dep': "..../modversion.h was not updated"
3) I can't use the character device module i810: 'make modules' stop with
"use pci_something"....
     anyway, this is not a big problem.
4) After all compilation, 'make modules_install' stop with an error
reguarding depmod....

Someone can help me?

Emilio
