In an attempt to move onto 2.4.17 from 2.4.7, I downloaded the 2.4.17 kernel sources and all the patches, that I am aware of, from developerworks.
The kernel make seems to go OK, but the install phase gets the error below. arch/s390/boot/Makefile is calling arch/s390/boot/install.sh with 5 arguements, but install.sh is only expecting 4. It doesn't seem to know about Kerntypes. I tweaked arch/s390/boot/Makefile and then everything works - or at least runs to completion. I think everything is OK but I always feel a little uneasy when things like this happen. Anyone seen anything like this? =============================================================== sh -x ./install.sh 2.4.17 image /usr/src/linux-2.4.17/System.map /usr/src/linux-2.4.17/Kerntypes "" + '[' -x /root/bin/installkernel ']' + '[' -x /sbin/installkernel ']' + '[' -f /usr/src/linux-2.4.17/Kerntypes/vmlinuz ']' + '[' -f /usr/src/linux-2.4.17/Kerntypes/System.map ']' + cat image ./install.sh: /usr/src/linux-2.4.17/Kerntypes/vmlinuz: Not a directory + cp /usr/src/linux-2.4.17/System.map /usr/src/linux-2.4.17/Kerntypes/System.map cp: accessing `/usr/src/linux-2.4.17/Kerntypes/System.map': Not a directory make[1]: *** [install] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.17/arch/s390/boot' make: *** [install] Error 2 =============================================================== Steve Arden [EMAIL PROTECTED] IBM-Global Services @ Lucent (630)979-7124
