This is about building a kernel for sunblade 100 but remember I am not on |
| 6 |
gentoo, and am building upstream sources. |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
Maybe your build system takes care of all this stuff for you? |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
The main thing is that a .config is not needed, as it is generated from the |
| 11 |
supplied sources and adapts itself to the build platform. It is OK for sunblade |
| 12 |
100 "out of the box" subject to the following changes. Following updates and |
| 13 |
corrects previous posts done from memory |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
In the end I got 2 errors. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
drivers/sbus/char/envctrl.c:41: error: static declaration of 'errno' |
| 18 |
follows non-static declaration |
| 19 |
include/linux/unistd.h:4: error: previous declaration of 'errno' was here |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
and the "patch" actually just edit the file to remove that line: |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
drivers/sbus/char/envctrl.c |
| 24 |
-static int errno; |
| 25 |
+//static int errno; |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
Did same for drivers/sbus/char/bbc_envctrl.c |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
That is quite useless except to quickly continue the building. The end result is |
| 30 |
a warning about those two modules during make modules_install. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.13.4/kernel/drivers/sbus/char/envctrl.ko needs unknow |
| 33 |
n symbol errno |
| 34 |
WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.13.4/kernel/drivers/sbus/char/bbc.ko needs unknown sy |
| 35 |
mbol errno |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
I will look for a bug upstream and file one if needed, meanwhile maybe it is |
| 38 |
better for you to configure to avoid building those modules. Or maybe gentoo |
| 39 |
handles this for you already. |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
If you have to do this next step make sure you do not overwrite anything! |
| 42 |
make install did not work. I just renamed them vmlinux-2.6.13.4 and |
| 43 |
System.map-2.6.13.4 and copied .config to config-2.6.13.4 and then copied those |
| 44 |
into /boot. |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
and ran yaird from /boot |
| 47 |
yaird --verbose --output=/boot/initrd.img-2.6.13.4 2.6.13.4 |
| 48 |
|
| 49 |
the i edit /boot/silo.conf by adding |
| 50 |
image=/vmlinux-2.6.13.4 |
| 51 |
label=mylinux |
| 52 |
initrd=/initrd.img-2.6.13.4 |
