Read the instructions from rpm -qpi openafs...src.rpm

You want to use rpmbuild --rebuild --target=i686  (assuming you're running
on a 686 and not a 586).

Quoting Mike Bydalek <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

Hello.

We have a few RHEL4 boxes that I want to start installing OpenAFS on, but I'm having some issues with loading the kernel module. This may be due to my lack of experience on RedHat, but you never know.

Anyways, the problem is that openafs.org provides a openafs-kernel-1.4.0-2.6.9_22.EL_1.i686.rpm, but it RedHat has since updated the kernel to 2.6.9-22.0.1.EL.

I tried to build custom packages using the openafs.spec file provided hoping that it would build a proper openafs-kernel...rpm package, but it just built the openafs-kernel-source-1.4.0-1.1.i386.rpm, which uses the afsmodload, which doesn't come with the rpms according to Derrick (read it in an archive from October).

So my question is, what are the proper steps to build an RPM for the current kernel on RHEL4? In the spec file, I keep seeing references to building the modules for the running kernel by default, but I don't see that happening.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

-Mike
