RE: compiling kernel on G4/867 12"
Thanks, but I have pbs putting this into practice.
>For a punt, you could just try commenting out this cp in the Makefile.
What should it comment out exactly, as commenting out the the 3 lines in
/usr/src/Makefile
.PHONY: _modinst_post
_modinst_post: _modinst_post_pcmcia
if [ -r System.map]; then $(DEPMOD) -ae -F Sytem map $(depmod_opts)
$(KERNELRELEASE); fi
doesn't come to anything as it is required by modules_install. I cannot find a
"cp" otherwise, so i'm a bit lost.
Is it a case of having to install some pcmcia related stuff - prior to doing a
make-kkkg?
Or is it a case of a wrong option in menuconfig? (The .config in
http://cattlegrid.net/~christophe/titanium/ doesn't seem to work from me.
Would there be other .config files available as a strating point?)
Many thanks for your help,
