RedHatters,
I have installed RH9.0 and the kernel-source*.rpm
When I cd into /usr/src/linux-2.4.x and run make oldconfig or cp /boot/config-2.4.x to /usr/src/linux-2.4.x/.config use `make xconfig' to add ntfs filesystem support and run `make dep bzImage modules' It fails every time with compile errors
However downloading the latest 2.4.22 source and compiling it using the /boot/config-2.4.x file with just ntfs support enabled works.
Can anyone tell me if they have successfully compiled the default RH source or is it just there to add 30MB+ to the system?
I'd guess the compiler conflict is rearing it's ugly head. Maybe the stock source is for gcc-3.2 or 2.95, and the new source is compatible with 3.3, and you are using 3.3. Just a guess. I don't use redhat, but the kernel compile problems I've heard about lately have involved the compiler. You can change the link (/usr/bin/gcc) to point to an older one to compile older source.
