Additionally, this is my assignment.After I download kernel, extract it and create a new .config file for the new kernel I am trying to command;make-kpkg clean fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version=-custom kernel_image kernel_headers.after the second command I get an error an it says "nothing to be done" but I expect to have some .deb files for the new kernel. In addition this I have added a new system call to the kernel 2.6.20-15.

I use ltib for mpc8272ads. How to build kernel with 'make CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y'?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have just started to work with BeagleBoard and built the Linux kernel (version 2.6.30.5) and download to the board and it start. I have also connected to the board over serial to Putty terminal.
Now I want to connect to the Beagle Board using USB instead of serial and I am looking for some info on how to do this.
My goal would be to connect to board over USB and then be able to:
* Download my own binary files/programs from PC over USB to BeagleBoard
* Communicate over USB instead of UART/Putty to get log and execute commands
Question:
How do I build the Linux kernel with USB support, meaning what settings should be ticked in menuconfig? Or is it already included?
How do I enable USB OTG in menu config?
I assume I would need some driver on my PC with Windows XP to connect to my BeagleBoard over USB. Were can I find this USB driver?
AFAIK, in addition to implementing the standard C library, glibc provides wrappers for system calls, threading support, and basic application facilities. So because of that, glibc that will be used on my target system should be built based on the kernel version running on my target, right?
Based on the above, I am trying to build a glibc version for my target machine's kernel. However, I don't know to to build a glibc library for a target system and also where on the target's filesystem should be put? In which location Linux will start looking for the libraries required for a program to run (should I create an /etc/ld.so.conf file)?

Quote:
sudo vmware-modconfig --console --install-all Unable to initialize kernel module configuration
how to do that. Where do I insert the "CONFIG_LOCALVERSION" line.

Same here. This seems to be due to the kernel version being "3.0" instead of "3.0.0". Recompiling the Kernel (and all modules based on it, e.g. nvidia) with
CONFIG_LOCALVERSION=".0-ARCH" allows me to compile the modules and run VMware.
I am trying to install atheros AR5007EG on my toshiba laptop -i figured out that best way to install this wireless card is through madwifi -while configuring madwifi i get this error
I am posting the output of different commands so you can understand better -i manually tried to link the build directories to kernel-source which failed - i am not sure exactly what kernel source is and how i can link to kernel source -
My output:
think of this directory as the current structure..

I have problem to mount a compressed (ISZ) image under Linux, which was created by e.g. UltraISO? I am aware about user-space fuseiso, but it fails to mount these images, as I have reported in Debian bugtracker (correct me if I ddi something wrong). I ask the community for a help: I need a proved solution to mount these images without decompressing them.I believe that CONFIG_ZISOFS kernel option cannot help, as it refers a special RockRidge extension (per-file compression with mkisofs -z or mkzftree).
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to figure out how to access compressed files without uncompressing them beforehand, and also without modifying the application/script I am using. Named pipes do the trick, but only seem to work once
In one terminal I do this:
Code:
$ echo "This is a file I'd like to be able to read." >> my_file
$ gzip my_file
$ mkfifo my_named_pipe
$ ls
my_file.gz my_named_pipe
$ gunzip -c my_file.gz >> my_named_pipe

Can anyone recommend a file system similar to SquashFS but writable?

After just over 3 hours the build exhausted the 5.2GB I had available and fell over. The .config file used was nearly twice the size of the one I supplied. Why was it changed?I don't need an rpm.Are the patches supplied with the 2.6.38 sources required or nice to have?

I need to install latest xen 3.4.2 to my centOS. I have:
* xen 3.4.2
* Linux 2.6.18 with Xen 3.4.x support source tarball, updated for Xen 3.4.2
* CentOS kernel-2.6.18-164.11.1.el5
Linux 2.6.18 with Xen 3.4.x have old cciss and scsi drivers. It don't support my hardware.
CentOS kernel-2.6.18-164.11.1.el5 works normaly, but was not compiled with xen 3.4.2.
How can I patch Linux 2.6.18 kernel or upgade CentOS kernel to the latest xen?
Here's my problem: While choosing to compress certain folders from within Windows 7, I marked the boot manager as 'compressed'. Now, when I try to boot, I'm not able to boot into Windows 7, or any other OS (I get an error: bootmgr is compressed, press Ctrl+Alt+Del to continue, which restarts the system and the same cycle continues.
I have a Windows 7 + open SUSE + Ubuntu 10.04 LTS wubi install boot setup. To complicate things, its a laptop, and the DVD drive is conked. Is there any way I can boot into any of my OS's? If not using a live boot, can I, perhaps make a bootable USB flash drive, boot into it and uncompress the boot manager ? Note: I'm typing this from another desktop, and I do not have Windows installed on this.

i am using the following command to backup and sql file:
tar -zcvf "$BACKUP_DST/$FILE_NAME.tgz" "$BACKUP_DST/$FILE_NAME.sql"
i want to make sure the compressed file wont be larger then 300mb, if it exceeds 300mb, split it into several files.
I had read that the shred doesn't safely work for compressed filesystems when shredding a file, how this can be accomplished in a compressed fs ?
