Re: Kernel compile R7.0 i386 GENERIC, fails

Extracted sources: sbase, srelease, ssys You also need scontrib (ACPI sources are there) component and maybe some others for successful build. btw, this is not a very usual (and a simple) way to make kernel. I added device acpi to the kernel configuration file. And it made the error go away.

Re: Kernel compile R7.0 i386 GENERIC, fails
