[OpenAFS-devel] Kernel 2.4.2 Compile

[Carl Fischer]

I got the kernel module to compile on 2.4.2 by using the following make
command:
make build-it VERS_DEF=" -include
/usr/src/linux/include/linux/modversions.h -DAFS_LINUX24_ENV"
LNX24_SRCDIR=/usr/src/linux-2.4.2

The important thing is the first parameter.  I'm not even sure if you need
the others, but it worked, so I left it.

I'm not sure if it's all necessary, but it makes a .o file without
complaints.  The problem I'm having now is that my kernel panics. 
(bummer, eh?)  Here's all the junk it put in my log.  It doesn't mean much
to me.  Maybe someone on the openafs-devel list knows what to do with it.

This is the last thing I see before the reboot.  Sorry, but I'm not sure
how to capture the kernel panic info (or even if it's necessary).

Let me know if you'd like me to experiment.  As far as I can tell, it just
happens after a small amount of use of the kernel module.

Cheers
