Manoj,

   Sorry about not including the error message.  I was in a hurry and
meant to add the error as an attachment.  Forgot all about it.  When I
get home from work, I'll resend the message with the error.

The error messages should help us help you. As would the
 output of :
 % dpkg -l libc5 libc6 gcc libc5-dev binutils make bin86 gawk gzip \
   shellutils grep cpp

These are all the packages that the kernel build process
 should depend on. It is difficult to say what is wrong based on the
 information available.

Problem creating custom kernel image

1997-08-27 Thread Steve Mayer
Hi,

  I've only been using Debian 1.3.1 for a short while now and have run up
against a problem that I'm not sure what to do about.

  When trying to create a custom kernel image, I am in the middle of the
'make config', right at the point that make splits off and tries to set up
the configuration script for the sound card, and I get 4 parse errors in
/usr/include/stdlib.h.

  I am not a C programmer by any means, and looking at the code did not help
much.
 
  Are there known issues about this?  I have installed the libc6 runtimes,
but all else should be libc5 as far as I know,

  Previously I had to edit two other .h files to reference the proper
location of stddef.h being in /usr/include/linux rather than /usr/include.

Any help would be appreciated. Never ran into a problem like this in my
four years of running Slackware.

Thanks,

Steve Mayer
