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

 



1) while compiling the 2.4 kernel, there was a step called "make dep" ,    'dep' means dependencies. What is meant by 'dependencies'  here? why was it needed?

2) In 2.6, that step has been done away with ie. there is no "make dep". Why was it removed in 2.6?
