Problems compiling 2.2.11 kernel (kernel upgrade fro 2.0.36)

Problems compiling 2.2.11 kernel (kernel upgrade fro 2.0.36)

Post by Rajesh Radhakrishna » Fri, 20 Aug 1999 04:00:00



Hi,

I followed the instructions given to me some people (on the newsgroups)
and from redhat's kernel upgrade webpage. The compilation stoppped and I
get the following error message,

make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.2.11/arch/i386/boot'
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -E -D__BIG_KERNEL__
-traditional -DSVGA_MODE=NORMAL_VGA  boots\
ect.S -o bbootsect.s
as86 -0 -a -o bbootsect.o bbootsect.s
make[1]: as86: Command not found
make[1]: *** [bbootsect.o] Error 127
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.2.11/arch/i386/boot'
make: *** [bzImage] Error 2

I don't have 'as86' on my system (RedHat 5.2) but another assembler
'as'. I tried replacing 'as86' with 'as' in the Makefile but 'as' has no
'-O' option and if I remove '-O' I get more errors.

What should I do.

Thanks
Rajesh

Install the bin86 package.  You can find it on metalab.unc.edu (fka
sunsite) somewhere in /pub/Linux.  You can also search for it on
filewatcher or freshmeat.  This package will provide the as86 and ld86
programs required to build the kernel.

Install the bin86 package.

Try ensuring that you have the bin86 rpm installed.

Problems compiling 2.2.11 kernel (kernel upgrade fro 2.0.36)

Post by Mathieu Clert » Sat, 21 Aug 1999 04:00:00


got exaaactly the same problem...

Help us pleaaaaase !!

(i tried to find as86 with GnoRPM - which RMP requires or provides "as86"
-but in vain)
Oh, one thing more on: this 'search' function in gnoRPM : it seems that when
you select 'provides'  it doesn't find anything... damn!

:)

1. Problems compiling kernel 2.2.11

Why can't I compile 2.2.11? I downloaded the patch, applied it
successfully, did a make dep; make clean; make bzlilo; make modules; make
modules_install.

It blows up when it starts compiling. The message is below. I've tried
gcc-2.7.2.3 and gcc-2.95 with the same error.
