Re: [gentoo-embedded] Specify Kernel Version for Module emerge

[Joshua ChaitinPollak]

I am building the module inside the chrooted environment. It seems that the kernel module ebuild's use uname to figure out which kernel version to compile against, because my desktop is running 2.6.15-gentoo-r2 and the ebuild fails with "/lib/modules/2.6.15-gentoo-r2/build is missing" I just now realized the error also says "Please set KERNELPATH", so I'm going to try setting that and see if it helps. -Josh On Jun 26, 2006, at 1:40 PM, Ahmed Ammar wrote: Sorry how did you build your kernel ? Did you not build it inside the same chroot ? and is it in ($chroot)/usr/src/linux ? Because if you chroot into your dev setup then you will have _no_ access to the desktop machine's files etc (from within the chroot) and therfore emerging inside the chroot can not use linux source outside the chroot. You must be either doing something wrong or doing this in a way very different from how I would. Ahmed.

Is there a way to force external module ebuilds to use a specific kernel version?
