Can the compiled Bering 1.2 LEAF UML kernel (2.4.20) and file system populated with the patched kernel sources, modules and gcc 2.95 be put on the site for download please.
I have a rh9 system and have been trying to compile a 2.4.20 uml kernel for LEAF in vain. Patches do not apply cleanly with the 2.4.20-8 source files I've with rh9. Further, recent posts suggest that 2.6 kernel is giving errors if compiled on gcc 3.xx version while it compiles on gxx 2.95!
I think you will drive yourself nutty trying to compile on the RH box directly. Please read http://www.redhat.com/advice/speaks_backport.html. I stopped banging my head against the wall once I understood this article. The way RH backports makes for a nice stable platform for the Red Hat way. This is not a bad thing because their testing and assembling of the distro is what you pay for. However, if you try to apply patches to a Red Hat doctored kernel, compiler, or other RPMs, then I believe you will potentially have errors. If your patch does not touch one of their backported areas of the kernel, then you will mostly have success. I believe a RH kernel src like kernel-2.4.20-19.7.src.rpm means kernel 2.4.20 with 19 patches applied but don't hold me to that. The compilers, glibc, and other applications have similar RH numbers.
Happy UMLing, Greg Morgan
