As David said, I think you are trying to cross-compile the kernel on the cygwin. and luckyly there is a post today about "crosstool-0.43 & cygwin", I think it is what you want. and notice that you also need to mount a directory using "-o managed", because on windows the name of file and directory is none-case-sensitive. when mount directory with that options, the name is case-sensitive. failed to do that will cause the compiling error because of missing files.
actually, the crosstool already notice this, so when you installed and select the gcc and kernel to compile, it will compile ok most of time because it already skip the modules which can cause that problem. Good luck Regards, Andy On 12/16/06, Leo Liu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
