Hello,
I am trying to compile the 2.4.6 kernel patched with international kernel
patch 2.4.3.1. After using menuconfig to configure my kernel, I issued the
command 'make clean dep'. During the depend make process, I get this error
message:
make -C devfs fastdep
make[4]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.6-int/fs/devfs'

The problem seems to crop up while doing the depends in the fs/devpts
directory, and then finally stops the depend make process after make has made
it to the fs/efs directory. I think the key is figuring out what is causing
the "input/output error", but I am not sure how to do that. What can you all
suggest?
My system runs SuSE Linux 7.2 with 128M of memory and an AMD K6-2 400MHz
processor. The partiion /usr/src/linux is on is 77% used, so I don't think
it is a space problem. I do have dnetc (distributed.net's RC5 cruncher)
running as a background process. I have not tried the compile without it
running, but I am not sure that would affect anything. (Probably worth a
shot though, huh?)
TIA,
Sean
