Subject: [PATCH] 2.5.5-pre1, allow RAM disk to be build
Date: Sun, 17 Feb 2002 02:07:35 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20020216180735.7807.qmail@linuxmail.org> (raw)
Hi,
since 2.5.x (can't remember version correctly) the setup for RAM disk changed and I could not build it anymore into the kernel due to compilation errors.
In the latest prepatch (2.5.5-pre1) this is still not fixed. I am using the following patch to fix this and it works from 2.5.x upto 2.5.5-pre1 without any problems.
please apply,
Rudmer
PS. CC me as I am not on the list
