RE: MTD - DOC 2000 freezes on umount

David, I ran the kernel build process and, sadly, no joy.

Here's the ending of a long string of various warnings from the compiler as
it worked through the MTD code...

gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.4.24.new.mtd/include -Wall
-Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common
-fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=i686 -DMODULE
-DMODVERSIONS -include
/usr/src/linux-2.4.24.new.mtd/include/linux/modversions.h  -nostdinc
-iwithprefix include -DKBUILD_BASENAME=write
-c -o write.o write.c
write.c: In function `jffs2_new_inode':

write.c:91: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
write.c:91: for each function it appears in.)

[root@localhost linux]#

The compile was performed on a new source tree (2.4.24) that had been
patched according to instructions and the configuration process operated as
recommended.

GCC: 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat 7.1 2.96-98) Specs from
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/2.96/specs

I wonder if I should just re-install RedHat, or is there any hope
otherwise??
