Compiling kernel on HardHat

Compiling kernel on HardHat

[Takeshi Hakamada]

Hi,

I have installed HardHat on R5000 Indy and it is very cool.
Installation procedure becomes much easier than previous release.
I admire all your effort to port Linux for SGI system.

I tried to compile kernel on HardHat using RPM kernel(2.1.100) source,
I can't build kernel due to following error.
In arch/mips/sgi/kernel/setup.c, 

setup.c:18: asm/vector.h: No such file or directory

Error message shows that I need to have include/asm/vector.h.
How can I get vector.h? Do I have to get latest kernel source from
ftp.linux.sgi.com?

Cheers,
Takeshi

that's already fixed in the CVS repository. You just have to remove
the #include in setup.c.

As this should be the only change, you don't need to.

Hi Thomas,

Thanks for your help. I'll try to remove #include in setup.c and build
kernel tonight.

Cheers,
Takeshi

I can successfully compile kernel after removing #include.

BTW, I brought SGI Linux Indy to TLUG(Tokyo Linux Users Group, mainly
consists of English speaking people who lives in Japan) meeting
and show them HardHat. They are very interested in SGI Linux project.

Cheers,
Takeshi
