Compile problem with GIT repo on Scientific Linux

Compile problem with GIT repo on Scientific Linux

[Cam Macdonell]

Hi,

I'm trying to install KVM using the git repos on Scientific Linux.  The 
error occurs when I run make.

The kvm-53 tarball works fine, but something is getting misconfigured 
when I run  "make -C kernel sync....".  This error doesn't occur on 
Fedora Core.  I installed kernel-headers using yum in the standard way

Has anyone experienced this problem with other RHEL clones like CentOS?

Thanks,
Cam

Thanks for reporting the problem.

You do not need to "make -C kernel sync" with kvm-tarballs.

For more information look at http://kvm.qumranet.com/kvmwiki/HOWTO -- "Unpacking and configuring kvm components"

Hi,

The kvm-53 tarball works fine, but something is getting misconfigured 
when I run  "make -C kernel sync....". 

Thanks,

Thanks for the quick patch :)

Yes, sorry, my language was unclear in that sentence.   I wasn't running 
sync on the tarball, just on the git repo.

Thanks,
Cam
