Troubles Compiling 2.6.1 on SuSE 9

Troubles Compiling 2.6.1 on SuSE 9

[Marco Rebsamen]

Hi there...

I try to compile my own kernel with 2.6.1 on suse 9. But i always get the same 
error. i applied the patch 2.6.2-rc1 but wasn't helping.

The error:

Looks like objcopy is failing.
Could you try to run the above command by hand in the top-level
directory of your kernel tree.
If it still fails try with
LANG=C LC_ALL=C objcopy ....

Just to check that language does not have any effect here.
I doubt so, but worth the try.

I browsed the objcopy src (a random version found by google)
without seeing where it could return 132

thanks for the help....

here my output...

bineo:/usr/src/linux-2.6.1 # objcopy -O binary -R .note -R .comment -S vmlinux 
arch/i386/boot/compressed/vmlinux.bin
Ungültiger Maschinenbefehl (in english, invalid machinecommand i guess)

bineo:/usr/src/linux-2.6.1 # LANG=C LC_ALL=C objcopy -O binary -R .note

Either objcopy is missing or the executable is damaged.
try 'which objcopy'

>From my suse 9.0 box:

sam@mars:~> which objcopy
/usr/bin/objcopy
sam@mars:~> ll /usr/bin/objcopy
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root       248064 2003-09-23 17:34 /usr/bin/objcopy
sam@mars:~> md5sum /usr/bin/objcopy
4aa1f3b8bc18dfdfdd7ae733804b0f1c  /usr/bin/objcopy

IIRC objcopy is part of binutils - which I may have installed by hand
after normal installation.

that was it.... the MD5 sum was something like 2.... so i reinstalled binutils 
and it worked.... but now i got problems (like everytime) with the modules.
I get many messages:
modprobe: modprobe: Can't open dependencies file /lib/
modules/2.4.21-99-default/modules.dep (no such file or dir.)

i did make modules_install. Where's my fault ?

thanks very much for the help....

Strange, you are building a 2.6 kernel.
Did you execute this as root?

originaly i read this on the Kernelmessages console (alt+F10)
but i also tried it as root.... the same...

i've never installed the default kernel. The athlond kernel was installed from 
the beginning. If i make a symlink in this folder that points to the 
modules.dep in the 2.6.1 dir. then it works. But i guess that isn't a clean 
solution.....

fu*** suse or stupid user ?? :-P

try with "export LANG=C && objcopy ...." to get english messages.

also: what binutils (objcopy -V), gcc, make, etc.. do you use? have you
bugged SuSE yet?
