Installed linux-2.6.18-rc2 (had one hard time at that one as keyboard acted strange and network didn't work). The real fun is this: to begin kernel build, I had to restore toolchain to working order like so: # ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.6.18-rc2/include/linux /usr/include/linux # ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.6.18-rc2/include/asm-i386 /usr/include/asm # ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.6.18-rc2/include/asm-generic /usr/include/asm-generic Now the fun part: if I recall, I do make headers_install to install the kernel headers in the right place. Doing this before running those fix lines doesn't work because the build environment is broken. Doing this after looks like it would clobber the kernel headers. Solution?
