I'm guessing you did an "emerge --depclean" sometime after compiling the |
| 44 |
2.6.22-r2 kernel that erased your make files, This is something depclean |
| 45 |
loves to do while leaving 99% of the older kernel source files intact |
| 46 |
when a new kernel source has been emerged. I think it leaves |
| 47 |
your .config file. Been a few weeks since I burned myself last with this |
| 48 |
one. If you were following directions back in 2007 you should have a |
| 49 |
stored config in /boot |
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
Try "emerge =sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.22-r2 to re-emerge the old |
| 52 |
package to regain the make files. What the osmp is about beats me. |
| 53 |
|
| 54 |
or |
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
Emerge a new gentoo-sources, eselect it, configure, compile, install a |
| 57 |
new kernel. |
