hi linuxers, i've just upgraded to kernel 2.2.1 and all is working fine. now i want to upgrade to glibc. according to the 'Change' file in the kernel 2.2 distribution, i need glibc version 2.0.7pre6. i downloaded this source and run 'configure'. i got the following errors: GoodNight:/extern2/for_linux-2.2.0/glibc-2.0.7pre6$ configure loading cache ./config.cache checking host system type... Invalid configuration `i586-pc-linux-gnu': machine `i586-pc-linux' not recognized *** The GNU C library is currently not available for this platform. *** So far nobody cared to port it and if there is no volunteer it *** might never happen. So, if you have interest to see glibc on *** this platform visit *** http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/porting.html *** and join the group of porters GoodNight:/extern2/for_linux-2.2.0/glibc-2.0.7pre6$ this is strange because the README file of the glibc distribution states that it runs under: i[3456]86-*-linux-gnu Linux-2.0 on Intel what's wrong here? has anyone experiences with upgrading to glibc? thank you for any help, gernot -- ,---------------------------------------------------------------------------. | dipl.ing. gernot kerschbaumer | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | vereinsgasse 32/12 ,-----' fax: +43 1 2160493 | | a-1020 wien | homepage: http://stud2.tuwien.ac.at/~e9018967/ | `---------------------------------------------------------------------------'
