Hello!
I am not sure if this is the right mailing list ao if not would someone let
me know? thanks...
anyway, on with the question:
I recently downloaded the patches 2.0.33 .34 and .35 to upgrade from
2.0.32. When i installed patch .33 it went on ok. I then tried patch .34
and it went ok for a while then started reporting hunk failures every so
often (sorry i don't have the exact sections) and then when it tried to
install stuff like asm-alpha it asked me where i should put it (i said it
should not be installed as i have an asm-i386 installed). is that right if
i have a PC running linux? after a while the patch finished.
then i ran make xconfig and installed native language support so that i
could use vfat etc. the i make dep; make clean which wen tok. but when i
compiled the kernel it died, giving me an error that started like this:
make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.0.32/fs/fat'
