Yes, you need some if not all of them, also it seems you dont have the
kernel source included, and/or:
1) No 'headers files'
2) Header files are installed but there is no symbolic links in
/usr/include
I would think that you dont have them installed as "cc" cannot find;
the asm/* or linux/* header files.
You need symbolic links like;
cd /usr/include
ln -s /usr/src/linux/include/asm-i386 asm
ln -s /usr/src/linux/include/linux linux
ln -s /usr/src/linux/include/scsi scsi
The errors here underneath are caused by no header files and not librarys.
I suggest you install both gcc and egcs, as to compile 2.0.xx kernels you
will need gcc and egcs for 2.1.xxx kernels.
You have no learn't that installing only "half" a linux system can be
enoying at the very least.
