Can anyone give me any pointers in how to compile individual modules. I am not a programmer, let alone a kernel programmer and am running into a road block. I know just enough about "C" to be dangerous.
I was provided the source for a raid controller from LSI Logic and need to compile for a 9.0 smp install.
Any help appreciated.
Usually it's enough to run "make" (or possibly make -f
) after first installing and preparing the kernel source (cd /usr/src/linux, make mrproper, make cloneconfig, make dep)
Tried that with many warnings and errors.
