I'm using SuSE 9.0 with all the kernel source packages and module packages installed. I can get cloned configuration to compile just fine but errors are numerous when I use "ARCH=um" I've started by trying to compile a clone of the UML kernel from the host-k_um-2.4.21.99 using: linux --showconfig > .config in /usr/src/linux then I do "make dep ARCH=um;make modules ARCH=um" the make dep runs flawlessly but make modules or make linux fails very quickly. The kernel build howto from Andreas Gruenbacher (October 2003) suggests that kernel-source-um.i586.rpm can be generated from kernel-souce.src.rpm and the source tree will be placed under /usr/src/linux-um. If this is correct how do I generate the kernel-source-um.i586.rpm or am I missing something else to build the UML binaries as SuSE has? Thank you, Chip Schweiss
