Hello all.
I'm in the process of re-compiling the kernel, but I get to a point where
there's an error. These are the steps up to the error:
# cd /usr/src/linux-2.4.18-3
# make config (CONFIG_PCMCIA = no to achieve a kernel without PCMCIA
support)
# make dep
# make clean
# make bzImage
# make modules
# make modules_install ( this is where the error appears)
ln: when making multiple links, last argument must be a directory
make: *** [_modinst_] Error 1
#
I read the man pages and it suggests that the directory it should
"make_install" is /lib/modules/2.4.*/
My new kernel will be called 2.4.18-3no-pcmcia-cs so I tried:
# make modules_install /lib/modules/2.4.18-3no-pcmcia-cs/
but the same error occurs. Please can you advise me where I'm going wrong.
Thanks, Trevor.
