[Scottish] Compiling and installing a second vanilla kernel

2005-08-07 Thread Andrew Thomas
Hello

I'm a linux newbie, and I'm trying to compile and install a second vanilla 
kernel so I can use this to build some device driver code. The Linux device 
drivers book advises me to do this. 

I am using SUSE 9.2 on my system. I have downloaded the latest kernel, but when 
I try to do a make menuconfig, or make  I get the following error:

/usr/src/linux-2.6.12.3/scripts/gcc-version.sh: line 11: gcc: command not found
/usr/src/linux-2.6.12.3/scripts/gcc-version.sh: line 12: gcc: command not found
  HOSTCC  scripts/basic/fixdep
/bin/sh: gcc: command not found
make[1]: *** [scripts/basic/fixdep] Error 127
make: *** [scripts_basic] Error 2


Can anyone tell me why this is?
Thanks

Andy

Hi guys,

I know this gets asked very often, but does anyone not have one of these?

I have accumulated 50 invites now.

Would anyone, or a friend of anyone like an account?

Thanks.

At the risk of sounding either a) obvious or b) cheeky, you don't appear to
have gcc installed :)

Or it may not be in his path if he's changed it somehow...just a
