Error compiling kernel 2.6.16

<< < (2/5) > >>

piratePenguin:
The kernel headers are installed?
Maybe something in this thread will help: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/linux-kernel/22858-make-xconfig-error.html (try making the link)

Master of Reality:
Your using debian eh?

Why not just use apt to upgrade your kernel.

Anyways...when i compiled a kernel in debian, I couldnt get menuconfig or xconfig to work either. I ended up copying my config file from my fedora machine and using "make config" to configure anything that i wanted different.

Although i had a completely different error i think.


EDIT: actually, yea that wont work.

Erm... there is some files the error says it cant find... try to locate them...
# locate limits.h

Why compile anything when you don't have to ... especially a kernel

 Performance gains?  Smaller kernel?

Mainly because I'd like to know how to do it.  Unless you'd like me to go back to Windows?
