Riley ,
Thanks a Ton for the Information.
It has really got me going...
I had to fix a couple of make files in elkscmd to make em use the $(CFLAGS)
variable or else they would not find some include files (e.g. in.h) under
linuxmt of the elks.
A few problems I am facing .....
(1) When I am compiling the elksnet , it is unable to link to the select
system call.
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/rags/ELKS/elksnet/ktcp'
bcc -o ktcp ktcp.o slip.o ip.o icmp.o tcp.o tcp_cb.o tcp_output.o timer.o
tcpdev.o netconf.o vjhc.o
undefined symbol: _select
BTW, getting the 'screen' directory to compile might be just too much for me
2 handle. I felt that I don't need it. So I am NOT compiling it. Tricked the
Top level make file by renaming the Makefile in screen directory to
Makefile.bak.
(2) In the elkscmd compilation, I have a few more to go.
init.c
====
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/rags/ELKS/elkscmd/sys_utils'
bcc -0 -O -ansi "-DELKS_VERSION=\"0.1.3-pre1\"" -s init.c -o init -H 2000
undefined symbol: _setsid
inet utils
=====
make[3]: Entering directory `/home/rags/ELKS/elkscmd/inet/nettools'
bcc -s netstat.o -o netstat
undefined symbol: _socket
undefined symbol: _connect
undefined symbol: _bind
This is coming up for all of em under inet.
I suspect the elkscmd compilations are unable to lookout for Network
Libraries manfactured in the elks ...
I tried some simple hacking ..copying the net.a as libnet.a and linking it
over ...Did not help...
Has anybody seen these ..?
I am not in a 'giving up' kinda state ..Getting a working elks kernel
certainly looks do-able now :-))
Bye,
Rags
