Hi

I'm hoping one of you pro's can help me.

Basically I tried compiling the xen unstable kernel by doing the following:

1) Download xen-unstable
2) Untar xen-unstabel
3) cd xen-unstable
4) Copy kernel config from redhat kernel: cp
/usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/kernel-2.6.9-i686.config
/root/xen/xen-unstable/linux-2.6-xen-sparse/.config
5) KERNELS=*2.4* make dist

Then I get the following error:

make[5]: Entering directory `/root/xen/xen-unstable/linux-2.4.30-xenU/crypto'

i dont see why you copy 2.6 kernel config, then compile 2.4 kernel ?

install /sbin/genksyms first, then try again

Hi Thanks for the reply. Basically I wanted the 2.6 xen kernel to have
all of the options that the redhat has.

Redhat don't supply the genksyms package, they stopped packaging it in
fedora core 3. How can I get round this?

Thanks
Shaz

then just "make dist". by default, xen will compile 2.6 linux kernel
only. so you dont need "KERNEL = ..." when running make.

genksyms is for 2.4 kernel based system only. so if you run 2.6, you
dont need that.

Hi

Would I need to copy the xen-unstable directory to fedora core 1. Then
do KERNEL=*2.4* make dist ? Do I need to run "make world" before I do
this on fedora core 1?

Appreciate your help.

Thanks
Shaz

FC 1run 2.6 kernel (but you should use the later FC, like FC3 or FC4).
so everything you need to do is to *closely follow* the guide in "user
manual" found at the homepage of Xen. then you will be OK.
