Too bad, since I've been building RPMs on a big fast WBEL-3.0 four way Xeon, but have to run them on a humble PII-350. Forgive me, I do NOT want to build kernels on the test machine, it takes forever and needs a bit of temp space tweaking as well. Built clean by itself, I just can't move and install it easily. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + umask 022 + cd /usr/src/redhat/BUILD + LANG=C + export LANG + unset DISPLAY + exit 0 Executing(%build): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.33180 + umask 022 + cd /usr/src/redhat/BUILD + LANG=C + export LANG + unset DISPLAY + rm -rf /tmp/lpfc-LPFC_DRIVER_VERSION + mkdir -p /tmp/lpfc-LPFC_DRIVER_VERSION/lpfc-LPFC_DRIVER_VERSION + cd lpfc-LPFC_DRIVER_VERSION /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.33180: line 28: cd: lpfc-LPFC_DRIVER_VERSION: No such file or directory error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.33180 (%build) RPM build errors: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.33180 (%build) make: *** [rpm] Error 1 -- Bill Davidsen, TMR
