AibOwan! Dear All,

when i compile my kernel it says "Host name lookup failure". then i
checked it by typing '# hostname -d' it gives 'hostname: Host name
lookup failure'

how can i solve this problem? i want to compile my 2.6x kernel...

Set the hostname by:

# hostname <hostname here>
# echo <hostname> > /etc/hostname
# rc-update add hostname default
# echo 127.0.0.1 <hostname> >> /etc/hosts
