Fellow PLUGgers, I've been running into undefined reference errors during the tail end of the kernel build process on a number of my boxes. I've tried it on vanilla 2.4.16, 2.4.17, and on 2.4.17-xfs, with and without RML's preemption patch. Same same.
Unfortunately because I can't understand the problem I can't progress to isolate the cause. Here's a snippet of the error messages. I hope someone can help me figure them out. :) TIA. --> Jijo ---- ld -m elf_i386 -T /usr/src/linux-2.4.17-xfs-20020116/linux-2.4.17-preempt-1/arch/i386/vmlinux.lds -e stext arch/i386/kernel/head.o arch/i386/kernel/init_task.o init/main.o init/version.o --start-group arch/i386/kernel/kernel.o arch/i386/mm/mm.o kernel/kernel.o mm/mm.o fs/fs.o ipc/ipc.o drivers/acpi/acpi.o drivers/parport/driver.o drivers/char/char.o drivers/block/block.o drivers/misc/misc.o drivers/net/net.o drivers/media/media.o drivers/char/agp/agp.o drivers/ide/idedriver.o drivers/scsi/scsidrv.o drivers/cdrom/driver.o drivers/sound/sounddrivers.o drivers/pci/driver.o drivers/pnp/pnp.o drivers/video/video.o drivers/usb/usbdrv.o net/network.o /usr/src/linux-2.4.17-xfs-20020116/linux-2.4.17-preempt-1/arch/i386/lib/lib.a /usr/src/linux-2.4.17-xfs-20020116/linux-2.4.17-preempt-1/lib/lib.a /usr/src/linux-2.4.17-xfs-20020116/linux-2.4.17-preempt-1/arch/i386/lib/lib.a --end-group -o vmlinux drivers/sound/sounddrivers.o(__ksymtab+0x2b8): undefined reference to `unload_mpu401' net/network.o(.text.lock+0x1648): undefined reference to `local symbols in discarded section .text.exit' make[2]: *** [kallsyms] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.17-xfs-20020116/linux-2.4.17-preempt-1' make[1]: *** [vmlinux] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.17-xfs-20020116/linux-2.4.17-preempt-1' make: *** [stamp-build] Error 2 --- -- Federico Sevilla III :: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Network Administrator :: The Leather Collection, Inc.
