I'm trying to recompile RedHat 9, kernel version 2.4.20-8. I was able to make bzImage successfully (verified that file bzImage was generated under arch/i386/boot/ directory). However, I got whole bunch of errors when make modules. This kernel came with RedHat 9 distribution, and my PC is just a regular one with all common features (pentiumIII, 900Mhz, 128MB RAM,...). So I don't understand why I had errors such as: make[3]: *** [module.o] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/sxp18m18/download/linux/linux-2.4.20-8/linux-2.4.20-8/drivers/addon/cipe' make[2]: *** [_modsubdir_cipe] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/sxp18m18/download/linux/linux-2.4.20-8/linux-2.4.20-8/drivers/addon' make[1]: *** [_modsubdir_addon] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/sxp18m18/download/linux/linux-2.4.20-8/linux-2.4.20-8/drivers' make: *** [_mod_drivers] Error 2 Also, I didn't see the .config file when I first installed RedHat. So I did a make oldconfig to generate one, but didn't know if this is the right thing to do. Any help is appreciated. Sam __________________________________ Yahoo! Mail Mobile Take Yahoo!
