Subject: Re: 2.5.1 - error compiling ksyms.c
Date: Tue, 18 Dec 2001 11:32:43 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4.3.2.7.2.20011218112315.00eb3100@mail.osagesoftware.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4.3.2.7.2.20011218103901.00c3aad0@mail.osagesoftware.com>

Never mind.  I seem to have corrected the problem by cleaning up and 
rebuilding from scratch, i.e.

         make mrproper
         make xconfig
         make dep
         make bzImage
         make modules
         make install
         make modules_install

and all worked fine.  Now if I can only remember what events lead up to 
encountering trouble, I might have something useful to report.
