Hi, I'm trying to compile a kernel for an embedded-powerpc-linux application. As a first step/training, I followed closely the instructions of the document "The DENX U-Boot and Linux Guide" for a TQM8XXL board, that is to say:
bash$ mrproper bash$ make TQM823L_config bash$ make oldconfig bash$ make dep After a few minutes of dependency creation, I get the following error "argument list too long": scripts/mkdep -- `find /usr/src/linuxppc_2_4_devel-2005-10-25-1440/include/asm /usr/src/linuxppc_2_4 _devel-2005-10-25-1440/include/linux /usr/src/linuxppc_2_4_devel-2005-10-25-1440/include/scsi /usr/s rc/linuxppc_2_4_devel-2005-10-25-1440/include/net /usr/src/linuxppc_2_4_devel-2005-10-25-1440/includ e/math-emu \( -name SCCS -o -name .svn \) -prune -o -follow -name \*.h ! -name modversions.h -print` > .hdepend scripts/mkdep: argument list too long make: *** [dep-files] Error 2 Can someone help me understand where that comes from? Does it have something to do with the fact that I work under WinXP + Cygwin? No need to say that I am a newbie to the Linux world... help me, Wolfgang :-) Noe Serres Midi Ingenierie Toulouse (FR) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
