(resending as I have not seen my msg in the mail
list and its been 24 hrs)
hi,
I just dl'd & built a kernel source RPM ( 2.6.18-8.1.3.el5-i686 ) as I needed to set some kernel switches for a new driver. The rpm build process produced the exact RPMs that
I expected, complete with my little version
'_test' at the end. The system boots my new 2.6.18-8.1.3_test.el5
kernel just fine.
The problem is that the rpm BUILD output dir only
has linux-2.6.18.i686, and my symlink
( /lib/modules/2.6.18-8.1.3_test.el5/build ) is expecting a 2.6.18-8.1.3_test.el5-i686 source directory. This was set by the rpmbuild process. Why didn't the RPM build process produce
2.6.18-8.1.3_test.el5-i686 instead of linux-2.6.18.i686
source code directory? Thanks, I appreciate any insight :
)!
