Subject: Re: [uml-devel] Problems compiling 2.4 kernel
Date: Thu, 01 Jul 2004 09:04:24 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <s0e3d3a3.027@ORANGE.OUS.EDU> (raw)

I'm in the habit of build kernels on machines that are very close to the distribution I run as guest. In the past, I found that this approach (using the default config file that ships with the distribution) can help me choose the right kernel options for the distribution (should I use devfs, which crypto modules should I build, etc).

In this case, the SuSE 9.0 is a i386 2.4 kernel. However, I will try these same steps with a "blank" config.

wtf are you trying to accomplish here?  You can't use the host's (i386 2.6)
.config to build a 2.4 UML kernel.
