[OpenAFS] Re: OpenAFS 1.2.10 and taroon (RH Enterprise Linux 3.0 beta)

[Troy Dawson]

Hi nomad,
I was just about to post to the list when I saw your e-mail.
I have been unsuccesful to recompile a kernel module for openafs 1.2.9 or 
1.2.10 for the kernel in taroon.  I have tried with both beta1 and beta2, and 
also with the newly release fedora-core kernel.
I have tried just loading in modules from the latest 9 kernels (2.4.20-20) 
with no luck.

When compiling, I have tried compiling on a beta release of taroon, as well as 
a beta release of fedora.  I have also tried just putting the kernel source on 
a RedHat 9 machine, the one I usually compile my openafs kernel modules on, 
still with no luck.

I probrubly should have sent to the list earlier, I just kept having other 
things come up.  Plus I thought I'd wait for the second beta's kernels to see 
if they worked any better, they didn't.

I usually get one of two errors.  The one I only got with openafs 1.2.9, so I 
won't worry you with that, but here is the other one I consistantly get.

That was actually a cut and paste from the build on a RedHat 9 machine, that 
had previously built the whole openafs rpm.  I say that so you know that it 
had all the libraries and such installed.  The only thing I changed was I 
removed it's other kernel-source, and added kernel-source-2.4.21-3.EL

p.s. If you want, I can sent the error from the build on a Taroon beta2 
machine.  But it looks pretty much the same.
