To whom is dealing with this, I found an error in the documentation of my debian version of linux 2.4.27-2-386. Whist wishing to upgrade to the newest stable kernel 2.6.8, I was following strict instructions as it is my first time. Followed this section under
Current Minimal Requirements ============================ Upgrade to at *least* these software revisions before thinking you've encountered a bug! If you're unsure what version you're currently running, the suggested command should tell you. Again, keep in mind that this list assumes you are already functionally running a Linux 2.4 kernel. Also, not all tools are necessary on all systems; obviously, if you don't have any PCMCIA (PC Card) hardware, for example, you probably needn't concern yourself with pcmcia-cs. o Gnu C 2.95.3 # gcc --version o Gnu make 3.79.1 # make --version o binutils 2.12 # ld -v o util-linux 2.10o # fdformat --version o module-init-tools 0.9.10 # depmod -V o e2fsprogs 1.29 # tune2fs o jfsutils 1.1.3 # fsck.jfs -V o reiserfsprogs 3.6.3 # reiserfsck -V 2>&1| grep reiserfsprogs o xfsprogs 2.6.0 # xfs_db -V And as I am actually using ReiserFS went to see which version I have. Currently the latest version 3.6.19, and have checked under unstable and testing and this is the most current version not 3.6.3 as stated in the documentation. Is only a minor error, but one never-the-less. Will stop people looking around for something that is not there like I have done. Many Thanks and Good Luck with the project. scottybwoy Newbie -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
