Hi, how are you,
Thank for Russ's and Erik's advice.
But I still fail to compile BLOB.
I doubt that I am so stupid.
My problem is that it always stops when I compile
(make) BLOB.
After displaying the following error messages:
..........
linux.c:83:'tag_core' undeclared.
linux.c:100:'tag_mem32' undeclared.
linux.c:140:'tag_initrd' undeclared.
linux.c:155:'tag_ramdisk' undeclared.
linux.c:161:warning:assignment makes pointer
from integer without a cast
make[1]:***[linux.o] Error 1
make[1]:Leaving directory
'/home/ff/blob205/blob-2.0.5-pre2/src'
make: *** [all-recursive]] Error 1
the compiling process stop and quit.
The following files are the tools and source code
that I used.
arm-linux-binutils-2.10-1.i386.rpm
arm-linux-glibc-2.1.3-2.i386.rpm
arm-linux-gcc-2.95.2-2.i386.rpm
linux-2.4.1.tar.gz
patch-2.4.1-rmk1.gz
diff-2.4.1-rmk1-np2.gz
What mesns "unconfigured kernel tree"?
The kernel that I used is "configured" or
"unconfigured" kernel tree?
How can I configure it?
I am sorry for asking such a besic question.
Could you please tell me what can I do?
Thank you very much.

when someone uses the words "foo" and "bar", they mean
for you to
replace them with what you would like to do. in this
case, I think they
probably asked you to set CC to the name of your cross
compiler (which
you want to do before ./configure anyway)

Either an ancient kernel, or an unconfigured kernel
tree (though
blob-2.0.5-pre2 should warn about this).

A file called "helloarm"? What kernel version is this
and where did you
get the source?

No doubt about that, but I get the impression this is
NOT the kernel
tree everybody else uses. For Assabet you should
compile blob against
linux-2.4.17-rmk5.

^^^^^
Mind the "p", it's --with-linux-prefix.
> --with-board=assabet arm-unknown-linux-gnu
> #export FOO=bar
That was an example. The README file says:
If you use the bash shell, use "export FOO=bar"
instead of
"setenv FOO bar".
That doesn't mean that you should take it literally,
it means "whenever
you see this tcsh syntax to set environment variables,
here is the way
to change it into bash syntax".
