The compile worked, and I'm now sitting with a probably nonworking kernel :-) How do I boot? I'v killed the filesystem on my 2nd disk, doing cat vmlinux > /dev/dsk/c0t2d0 . No great loss, as I'v emtied it of useful data, and was planning to do that anyway. Unfortunately, when I boot from P1, IPL responds with 'bad LIF magic'. back to hpux, then.... Do I need a tftp-server and try for a netboot? make menuconfig: I've downloaded ncurses (v 4.2 from ftp.gnu.org, /gnu/ncurses/ncurses-4.2.tar.gz ) and installed it. I then linked /usr/local/include (where ncurses.h resides) to /usr/include/ncurses (so that /usr/include/ncurses/ncurses.h exists), and sssslightly modified linux/scripts/lxdialog/Makefile, as HPUX's find barfed on -maxdepth 1. sh-2.03$ diff Makefile.old Makefile 33c33 < @x=`find /lib/ /usr/lib/ /usr/local/lib/ -maxdepth 1 -name 'libncurses.* '` ;\ --- > @x=`find /lib/ /usr/lib/ /usr/local/lib/ -name 'libncurses.*'` ;\ Running make menuconfig from the kernel directory now works great, and I can build nonworking kernels with gusto. -Simen Thoresen - finally hacking something useful. -- "We do have a summer.
