If you have the sparc64-linux-gcc compiler and recent binutils (UltraPenguin 1.1.9 e.g. has such packages), then just cd /usr/src/linux; make config (if you don't want to bother with selecting config options, do make oldconfig instead, it will have reasonable defaults). Then make dep && make && make modules && make modules_install cp vmlinux /boot/vmlinux-2.2.4 echo "disk /boot/vmlinux-2.2.4" > /proc/sys/kernel/reboot-cmd /sbin/reboot Cheers, Jakub ___________________________________________________________________ Jakub Jelinek | jj@sunsite.mff.cuni.cz | http://sunsite.mff.cuni.cz Administrator of SunSITE Czech Republic, MFF, Charles University ___________________________________________________________________ UltraLinux | http://ultra.linux.cz/ | http://ultra.penguin.cz/ Linux version 2.2.3 on a sparc64 machine (3958.37 BogoMips) ___________________________________________________________________
