Hi, I am doing my initial setup of PPP. I have a fresh RedHat 5.2 install,
and I've done a complete 'make xconfig' and compile of the kernel with the
Redhat included PPP code. No problems compiling that, or getting my
Qmail/IP Aliasing/NNTP/DNS etc all setup. This is not my first Linux box
install, though I am no expert admittedly.
I am trying to recompile the kernel with the PPP 2.3.4. I run the
'./configure' in my ./ppp-2.3.4 dir (after tar -x it) and have the sym
links made to the appropriate ./linux/<appropriate_files> Good so far.
Next I do the 'make kernel' in the ./ppp-2.3.4 dir and get the standard
'Installing new /usr/src/linux/include/linux/<files> and
/usr/src/linux/drivers/net/<files> and all appears well. 'Kernel Driver
Files Installation Done'
Compiling the kernel: Now, I simply do a new 'make dep' and 'make zImage'
and I get the following errors when it gets to the ppp code (note, in the
'make xconfig' menu, if I turn off PPP support, I compile the kernel fine.
Also, I can compile the PPP support as a modele - which I will simply do
and use if I can't figure out why I can't compile the new PPP into the
kernel itself). See the exact output text and errors I get during my 'make
zImage' below.
I appreciate any help anyone may have. I hope this is just a simple change
on my part to get it working.
Thanks in advance,
Brian
