Problems building contents of snapshot 3-9-2003

Hello from Gregg C Levine
Well, I am now closer to my working problem's solution. But now a new
problem, or problems has surfaced. And here's a C&P of the problems:

That was captured as a script file, as is. I have no real idea what
they are talking about. Can any of you, advise?

before you go through all this trouble, what is in CVS that you need
that isn't in 2.4.20 stock?

I only use the stock kernel stuff and tools from the debian packages, so
I don't know what the problem would be here, but since you are traking
CVS, you can expect some problems, you just need to solve them.

I'm not sure, if the out of kernel build is really up to date.

Could you try to use patchin.sh from patches directory and do make xImage, 
make modules from your kernel directory ? That works for sure.
Please use latest CVS code, as we have fixed some leakes yesterday.

Hello again from Gregg C Levine
Um, no it does not. It breaks in two specific places. The filesystems
for jff, and jff2. So, then what now? I'll keep trying. Indeed, when I
bring up my Linux box, I'll even update the former snapshot to the
current contents of CVS, today. However, this is beginning to feel old
and annoying. When I started with this, I did think everything was
fixed.

I just got a pristine 2.4.20 kernel and applied from current CVS
./patchin.sh -j /home/thomas/work/linux-2.4.20

Then I configured mtd, jffs, jffs2 and built the kernel. Works as exspected
