From: sakaria@vipunen.hut.fi (Sakari Aaltonen) Subject: Can't Compile Kernel 0.97 Date: 14 Aug 1992 16:12:57 GMT
My attempt to build kernel 0.97 with gcc2.2.2 fails (at tools/build) because
the following files are missing::
sys/types.h
fcntl.h
unistd.h
Specifically, they are not in /usr/include, that is, the directory that, as
far as I understand, should be used for tools/build.
I have files with these names among the kernel files. I tried copying them
into /usr/include, which makes the make succeed. However, build then fails
with the message
Can't stat root device
Indeed, it seems that stat() ALWAYS returns -1...??
Does anyone know where I might obtain the missing files?
Out of curiosity: does anyone have an idea WHY the files are missing?
Or why stat() should return -1, no matter what the path,
"/usr/include", say?
