compiling older kernel on newer machine

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

 



Hi all,
in order to build a cross toolchain, as a first step I was trying to
compile kernel headers to be installed on my local machine.
I have chosen an older kernel 2.622, but my machine has native kernel
2.6.29 and hence compilation fails due to incompatible headers.

I know, it always recommended to use latest kernel, but _IF_ i want to
compile an older kernel, I need to install headers for the same, so I
did this:
#make arch=i386 headers_check

but even to compile this, i need corresponding headers.
What is way around this, in order to compile older kernels on new
native machine.

Regards
Anuz
