I'm simply trying to compile a vanilla kernel from Kernel.org, I've done it before, however "make menuconfig" returns an error after I've made my changes to the config file.
Code:
Why is make returning that error? I am using a 64-bit kernel.

why is this? make menuconfig giving error
I've been reading about a temporary solution to the kernel/Fglrx issue caused by the last kernel update, but I haven't read about any permanent solution to this issue. Anyone know anything about a permanent solution (new kernel update?, new Fglrx driver?) to this compilation error?

I need to modify fs/open.c and fs/read_write.c to make my modifications. I cannot find any options in 'make menuconfig' to make these files modules rather than compiled elements. I'm thinking these cannot be modules because the file system won't work without open.c and read_write.c. Is this correct - I cannot compile fs/open.c and fs/read_write.c as modules, only as compiled elements? Or, is there some way for a module to overwrite these routines when the module is installed and re-enable the routines when the module is removed?

I'm experimenting with 2.6.33-ck1 mainly because I want to try the BFS. I successfully configured and installed the patched kernel, but I'm experiencing various problems on the desktop. The biggest is Chromium not working at all, but there are several others, including graphical glitches in firefox. I'm sure I left some important module off or made a mistake for some settings My question is that is there a 2.6.33-fc12 kernel yet, and does it have a .config available? I'd like to load those settings in menuconfig and use them as a starting point to properly configure and complie a -ck patched kernel.

I am looking for information to insert kernel module into kernel.

When configuring a custom kernel using fedoraproject.org instructions, the make menuconfig options for LIRC are not in the .config file anywhere. I checked the kernel tree and all the files are there in the .../drivers/input/lirc subdirectory (I need the lirc_dev and lirc_i2c drivers). I reset the .config to its original settings to make sure I didn't mess up. I also grep'ed the .config file for any LIRC related settings, none found. Also I'm not getting any sound from the radio-aztech driver.

I'm trying to get a fedora guest running reliable smp under VirtualBox 3.0.6. The VirtualBox manual says "Some Linux distributions, for example Fedora, ship a Linux kernel configured for a timer frequency of 1000Hz. We recommend to recompile the guest kernel and to select a timer frequency of 100Hz." So I tried recompiling the kernel. Being a responsible lad, when it came to setting the kernel specs:
Code:
# Polite request for people who spin their own kernel rpms:
# please modify the "buildid" define in a way that identifies
# that the kernel isn't the stock distribution kernel, for example,
# by setting the define to ".local" or ".bz123456"
#
# % define buildid .local

Please install the build and header files for your current Linux kernel. The current kernel version is 2.6.30.5-43.rim_for_vbox.fc11.x86_64. I'm pretty sure this is because my kernel doesn't match the development packagekernel-devel-2.6.30.5-43.fc11 (x86_64). So the key question is, how on Earth do I create a development package to match the responsibly-renamed kernel?
I am compiling a new kernel. I have successfully compiled it, how to modify grub.cfg. I am using ubuntu 10.10.
Can I use 'update-grub' ?
I tried using that and even its updating the grub with new kernel. But after I boot the new kernel its showing
The disk for / is not ready or does not exist
#and some statements# M for recovery ...
Is there any problem with kernel compilation and why is that coming ?
Why it asking me for options to be selected while I run: Code: make oldconfig.I am in verse to compile latest reased kernel 2.6.34-rc5 on Ubuntu 9.10?what i did is Just pressed "Enter" key ( i think it will dsiable everything?Not sure) and created a .config file.
