Where can I find documentation on how to install/run/patch or whatever I
have to do to get this working with the latest 2.4 kernel for a powerpc
architecture.
I've downloaded kbuild-2.5-2.4.17-1.bz. Is that all I need ???
Thanks,
Brendan Simon.

I am trying to apply the kbuild-2.5-2.4.18-pre1-ppc-1 patches to a
linuxppc-2.4.18-pre8 tree. The patches apply perfectly but I'm getting
errors when I do a make -f $KBUILD_SRCTREE_000/Makefile-25 xconfig.
The tail of the errors are :
Ignoring symbolic link
the
function parse_makefile_in() which is called from the file pp_makefile1.c.
I'm stuck and don't know how to get rid of this error.
Thanks,
Brendan Simon.

Not at the moment. The tree walk code must not follow symlinks to
directories, othereise it gets very confused about where all the input

Is it easy to patch from release 2 from the the previous release of

ie. is it as easy as untarring everyting in the Linux source directory

Maybe I have to remvoe the Makefile-2.5 directory and the entire scripts

done this before. I guess it's a good time to try it
(when the PPC patches are available). For now I'll keep going with the
current PPC release.

In kbuild-2.5-release-1.12, some of the script files are checked for the
correct permissions (see below for scripts/Makefile-2.5 fragment).
Instead of trying to change the permissions of the source tree (which
might be owned by another user, eg. aegis), would it be possible to

Keith,
I'd like to request a minor change to the makefile rules to generate
targets. Could each rule start with removing the target.
Example:
%.o : %.c
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c -o $@ $
becomes:
%.o : %.c
$(RM) $@
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c -o $@ $
The main reason is to satisfy some
I want to have a go at porting kbuild to the 2.4.18 kernel for the PPC arch.
Are there any documents or howtos ?
What is the best way to go about this ?

OK.
Doing a patch against 2.4.* is easier because the kernel actually

I'm trying to use select() after a base_target() statement. Does
