Cannot install kernel headers package
Hello,
I need to build the kernel-image and headers .deb packages for a embedded system equipped with Debian etch.
As the embedded processor is not much powerful (P III) and is too busy with several other tasks, I have to compile the kernel source (vanilla 2.6.20 patched with RTAI) on a PC running Kubuntu feisty.
I made the packages with the usual command:
fakeroot make-kpkg --revision=0.1 --append-to-version=-rtai kernel_image kernel_headers
The kernel .deb package could be successfully installed on the Debian system, but when I tried to install the kernel_headers package, the following error occurred:
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of linux-headers-2.6.20-rtai:
linux-headers-2.6.20-rtai depends on libc6 (>= 2.5-0ubuntu1); however:
Version of libc6 on system is 2.3.6.ds1-13etch2.
dpkg: error processing linux-headers-2.6.20-rtai (--install):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
linux-headers-2.6.20-rtai
My question is: how can I correctly make a cross-system (Ubuntu/Debian) kernel compilation/installation?
Any help will be highly appreciated!
