Not on 2.4.0, but nobody in their right mind would use that kernel
anyway, it was very buggy.

Anything from 2.
Hi Brendan,
Here's the historical rationale on the "touch" commands.
Suppose that foo.c includes bar1.h, bar1.h includes bar2.h.
Suppose that you edit bar2.h, or more likely, you apply a patch
that changes bar2.h. Either way, you do something that updates bar2.h.
The way that the dependencies
This doesn't affect your explanation as a whole, but ...

I checked and you are right and I am wro
Hi.
I've created a 2.4.18p1+kbuild tree (clean 2.4.18p1 tree,
apply kbuild-2.5-2.4.16-3.bz2, kbuild-2.5-2.4.17-1.bz2,
kbuild-2.5-2.4.18-pre1-1.bz2) and copied in an old .config.
When I run 'make -f Makefile-2.5 oldconfig installable'
it loops in the oldconfig phase forever.
The tie-over of ea
Where can I find documentation on how to install/run/patch or whatever I
have to do to get this working with the latest 2.4 kernel for a powerpc
architecture.
I've downloaded kbuild-2.5-2.4.17-1.bz. Is that all I need ???
Thanks,
Brendan Simon.
