Erich, I did all the things I normally do when compiling a new kernel: - untar the kernel (in this case into my home dirctory) - as root adjust the link /usr/src/linux so that it points to the kernel source to be compiled - exit from beeing root (in my home directory the user can do everything) - edit the config file by menuconfig (in this case I took Jaques' original config file) - make dep - make clean - make bzImage While doing this step the mentioned error messages occured. Today this I tried make modules, and got the error messages at the end of this posting.
but there is another error message in the middle of the compiling process: md5sum: kann hfc_pci. nicht öffnen (cannot open hfc_pci.) md5sum: kann hfc_pci nicht öffnen (cannot open hfc_pci) maybe these error message give a hint to the problem, even if hfc_pci belongs to the hisax-module. Would it be better to download the original 2.4.20 kernel source and apply the patches myself? Thanks Thomas PS: error messages while making modules: make -C maps modules make[3]: Entering directory /proline/lrp_nfs/Bering1.2/linux-bering-1.2/drivers/mtd/maps' gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/proline/lrp_nfs/Bering1.2/linux-bering-1.2/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=i486 -DMODULE -nostdinc -iwithprefix include -DKBUILD_BASENAME=dilnetpc -c -o dilnetpc.o dilnetpc.c dilnetpc.c:374: ONFIG_MTD_DILNETPC_BOOTSIZE' undeclared here (not in a function) dilnetpc.c:374: initializer element is not constant dilnetpc.c:374: (near initialization for iglvl_partition_info[0].size') dilnetpc.c:379: ONFIG_MTD_DILNETPC_BOOTSIZE' undeclared here (not in a function) dilnetpc.c:379: initializer element is not constant dilnetpc.c:379: (near initialization for iglvl_partition_info[1].size') dilnetpc.c: In function nit_dnpc': dilnetpc.c:444: ONFIG_MTD_DILNETPC_BOOTSIZE' undeclared (first use in this function) dilnetpc.c:444: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once dilnetpc.c:444: for each function it appears in.) make[3]: *** [dilnetpc.o] Fehler 1 make[3]: Leaving directory /proline/lrp_nfs/Bering1.2/linux-bering-1.2/drivers/mtd/maps' make[2]: *** [_modsubdir_maps] Fehler 2 make[2]: Leaving directory /proline/lrp_nfs/Bering1.2/linux-bering-1.2/drivers/mtd' make[1]: *** [_modsubdir_mtd] Fehler 2 * Erich Titl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [030923 20:20]: > OK, I believe that is correct, I donwloaded the whole shebang myself and > applied all the patches (and a few more). > You statet that you tried to compile grsecurity, what _exactly_ did you do? > Normally all it takes is: > > make menuconfig (or xconfig depending on X) > ... > select the necessary options and if needed save the config file > ... > make depend > make bzImage > make modules (if you need the modules) > make modules install > > I must admit I wrote my own environment for the kernel compile.
