I'm trying to recompile util-linux-2.12 on Linux 2.6.2 and getting the same error as Alex. I'm using linux-libc-headers-2.6.1.3 -- but they don't bother to say how to install them (and I assume they will work for Linux 2.6.2). And all this is to try and get rid of the "mount version older than kernel" message. I suppose there's a jolly good reason for splitting the headers but it seems to just present more opportunity to hork things up. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Andries Brouwer" To: "Alex Davis" Cc: Sent: Friday, February 06, 2004 4:37 PM Subject: Re: Issues with linux-2.6.2 > On Fri, Feb 06, 2004 at 01:22:05PM -0800, Alex Davis wrote: > > > I have a few issues with 2.6.2.
