MB is very slow and does not have enough diskspace, so I can not install compilers or headers there. Tehre is enough space for a new kernel though. What I was trying ot do is to compile the kernel on MA and to install it after I nfs-mount the linux-directory from MA to MB. Unfortunately a developers environment on MB is missing and I got following error after i do make install make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.20/include/asm/param.h', needed by `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.20/include/linux/sched.h'. Stop. Unfortunately on MA everything is compiling fine - where is the problem what do I need for the asm/param.h Is it enough to compile on MA and to copy the relevant stuff eg. vmlinuz + modules to MB thanks a lot -- + Emanoil Kotsev - - - - -+ + E-Mail: emanuel@t2u.com + --------------4F005767D9AF20273C89A644 Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi, folks,

Is it enough to compile on MA and to copy the relevant stuff eg. vmlinuz + modules to MB

thanks a lot
