Hello there, After upgrading from Suse7.0-ppc to 7.3-ppc I'm not able to compile OpenAFS 1.2 and later. Using 7.0 had no Probs - now getting several probs: (apparently this will be the same in 7.3-i386) using "./configure" will result into: ---snip--- checking your OS... configure: warning: No usable linux headers found at /usr/src/linux so disabling kernel module linux checking your AFS sysname... configure: error: Couldn't guess your Linux version. Please use the --with-afs-sysname option to configure an AFS sysname. ---snip--- so using "./configure --with-afs-sysname=ppc_linux24" will work, except following message: ---snip--- checking your OS... configure: warning: No usable linux headers found at /usr/src/linux so disabling kernel module linux ---snip--- however now you're ready to "make" that will result into: ---snip--- /root/openafs-1.2.2a/src/pinstall/pinstall afs.h /root/openafs-1.2.2a/include/afs/afs.h /root/openafs-1.2.2a/src/pinstall/pinstall LINUX/osi_inode.h /root/openafs-1.2.2a/include/afs/osi_inode.h /root/openafs-1.2.2a/src/pinstall/pinstall afs_stats.h /root/openafs-1.2.2a/include/afs/afs_stats.h /root/openafs-1.2.2a/src/pinstall/pinstall exporter.h /root/openafs-1.2.2a/include/afs/exporter.h /root/openafs-1.2.2a/src/pinstall/pinstall nfsclient.h /root/openafs-1.2.2a/include/afs/nfsclient.h case ppc_linux24 in \ pmax_ul43 | pmax_ul43a) \ /root/openafs-1.2.2a/src/pinstall/pinstall longc_procs.h /root/openafs-1.2.2a/include/afs ;; \ esac case ppc_linux24 in \ *linux* ) \ /root/openafs-1.2.2a/src/pinstall/pinstall LINUX/osi_vfs.h /root/openafs-1.2.2a/include/afs ;;\ * ) \ echo No vfs headers to install for ppc_linux24;; \ esac Can't open source file ``LINUX/osi_vfs.h'': No such file or directory make[3]: *** [all] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/root/openafs-1.2.2a/src/afs' make[2]: *** [afs] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/openafs-1.2.2a' make[1]: *** [build] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/openafs-1.2.2a' make: *** [all] Error 2 ---snip--- Note: similar problems appeared with earlier OpenAFS-Releases(<1.2) on Suse7.0ppc, that could have been solved by installing several additional lib* plus lib*-devel - however not this time ->now I'm at the end of my Ideas.

Can anyone who has managed to get v7.3 working successfully on a latest rev. Powerbook G4 offer me some advice? As a bit of background information, I've installed Linux on many Intel PCs and I do know what I'm doing in that environment... Anyway, I've partitioned my hard disk as follows: 25gb HFS+ partition with Mac OS/X 32gb HFS boot partition for Linux 128gb swap partition 4gb ReiserFS partition with a mount point of '/' 15gb ReiserFS partition for 'home' Problem no. 1: Yast2 appears in a horrendous colour scheme of dark blue background for text, black text, bright green screen background. Is the ATI Radeon card supported? Problem no.2 (the showstopper): At the point where Yast has formatted the last Linux partition I get an error stating that it could not mount one of the partitions. I've tried several times now and the particular partition that causes the problem (appears to be) random. The error message does give me the option to ignore the error and continue but I assume that will be pointless - i.e. if it can't mount the boot partition or the root partition then things aren't going to work, right? Other random facts: 1. The Mac and boot partitions were created using Mac OS/X's disk partitioning tool. 2. Yast1 fails to recognise any partitions at all (including the Mac one) Can anyone help?

Oops! Slight correction: the boot partition is 32mb, the swap parition is 128mb. The other figures are correct.

include/linux/version.h is missing in your kernel source directory Do a cp -p /boot/vmlinuz.version.h /usr/src/linux/include/linux/version.h The reason why it is not in the kernel-source.rpm is that this way you can be sure that it matches the actually installed kernel.
however now you're ready to "make" that will result into:
By the way, you can still build openafs without the kernel module with --disable-kernel-module.
Many Thanks in advance,
