Hi, there
It seems that i have trouble with compilition under linux, these are
the things i've remarked.
first of all the config:
386sx, no 387, 2Mo ram, 30 Meg Linux partition on Hd
the soft config:
those on tsx11 mainly + those which appeared in this mailing list
ok, now the things i tried
compile fsck : noway (gcc -c works not the -o which complains in many
undefined symbols such as IN or inode-map zone-map super-block-buffer ....
the rest has been skipped
compile elvis: not yet fixed (i'll try some C. Darken proposal)
compile linux:
first i've changer the buffer.c
i've applied the build patch
i've done some ack on keyboard.S to have a more french oriented kbd
i've change the config.h for the kbd, and commented the lines in the
linux/Makefile (those for the 16binaries and the chmem)
and then just type make
- the (cd ?????;make) *DOES NOT WORK* in the sense that
it does not run the gcc -c commands, only the gld ones so ERROR
- then i tried a bottom up compilation of linux subtree, i.e apply
by hand the make on each subdirs, and then run make in linux.
the make in sub-dirs works fine, not the final linking in general
it complains about a lot of undefinde symbols
- finally i've tried the make clean command
funnily :-( it does not work, just clean the linux and boot directories
(the one without make)
THEN (again yes) i thought it was due to the place of the linux subtree
which is not under /, but under /usr/src so i've change all the path in
absolute path name. RESULT: NIET
THEN and LAST: i've changed in the subdirs the clean order from
rm -f blabla to rm -i blabla
in that case the global clean works fine, and asks me for the deletion
which i agree and it does clean.
so questions are:
has any one tried to compile linux under linux?
has any one had such experience?
has any one cast a spell on me? 8-)
what about make/
PS: i've tried some simple compilation as uudecode/wc which were ok
