To add to Ray's advice, try running make mrproper before anthing else, it only needs to be run once after installing the source. Before you do that now, copy .config into /usr/src otherwise it will get deleted. mrproper creates the needed symlinks. -- Regards Richard [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.zeelandnet.nl/pa3gcu/ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
