recompiling kernel
Hi,
I tried recompiling the kernel to include sound support for a newly
acquired card. I got an error that I don't understand. I'm using Deb
1.3.1, kernel 2.0.30. The card is of unknown manufacturer, 16 bit, chipset
ESS 1868. I pretty much followed the same compile instructions that I used
to make the custom kernel that I have been using until now. My
understanding of what is happening in all these steps is pretty limited, so
please keep any answers simple. If any info is required in addition to the
following excerpt from make zdisk, I'd be happy to send it along.
TIA,
Gerald Crimp
