Relinking Kernel Problem with SCO 5.0.2

Post by Mohamed Ibrahi » Thu, 04 Dec 1997 04:00:00



Hello,

I cannot relink the kernel after setting up a 2 gig scisi tape drive.
Getting the following errors..

Relinking Kernel...

           The UNIX Operating System will now be rebuilt.
            This will take a few minutes. Please wait.

            Root for this system build is /

idmkreg: error updating space.c file for Stp
idmkreg: error updating space.c file for Stp

Anyone with a suggestion.. thanks.

There is a Technical Article on this. Serch for it on SCO's web page,
using idmreg and 5.0.2 as keywords.

When we attempt to relink our kernel in the sysadmsh, via System ->
Configure -> Kernel -> Rebuild, we get:
 /./usr/include/sys/seg.h: 96: undefined control
 ERROR: /etc/conf/pack.d/cr_uni/stubs.c   will not compile properly

And, if we do a link_unix, we get:
 /./etc/conf/cf.d/config.h: 115: undefined control
 /./etc/conf/cf.d/config.h: 243: undefined control
 /./etc/conf/cf.d/config.h: 381: undefined control
 /./etc/conf/cf.d/config.h: 452: undefined control
 /./etc/conf/cf.d/config.h: 504: undefined control
 /./etc/conf/cf.d/config.h: 547: undefined control
 /./etc/conf/cf.d/config.h: 686: undefined control
 /./etc/conf/cf.d/config.h: 861: undefined control
 /./etc/conf/cf.d/config.h: 923: undefined control
 /./etc/conf/cf.d/config.h: 932: undefined control
 /./etc/conf/cf.d/config.h: 979: undefined control
 /./etc/conf/cf.d/config.h: 1079: undefined control
 /./etc/conf/cf.d/config.h: 1102: undefined control
 /./etc/conf/cf.d/config.h: 1163: undefined control
 /./usr/include/sys/xdebug.h: 83: undefined control
 /./usr/include/sys/xdebug.h: 97: undefined control

We have checked the stubs.c file against other systems, and it is
unchanged from the way it shipped from SCO.  We tried renaming the
stubs.c file and removing it from the include list; however, the error
then occurs on another file in the  /etc/conf/pack.d/cr_uni  directory.

We assume our compiler is corrupt, as we had a kernel double-panic some
time back which corrupted several files.  We believe the 'include' files
to be OK - we need some advice on where to look for the compiler so we
can check it (them) against other systems.  At this time we are unable to
relink our kernel, thus preventing us from implementing upgrades and
tuning.
