Hello all
I'm trying to compile the linux-wlan drivers. To do so I need to
have the kernel source installed. I am not new to linux, but I am new to
debian and therefore I am a bit lost. I have installed it kernel 2.4.18bf.
When building the wlan drivers I was asked for the kernel source, so I
installed the kernel-source-2.4.18-5 package. However during the
configuration of the wlan drivers' source I am told that the kernel source
is incomplete or broken in some way. I guess that is because there is no
.config file. Looking in the distribution files I found a kernel-config file
packaged with each kernel flavour. So the question is would the following
steps be correct for setting up the kernel source tree:
1. Install kernel-source-2.4.18-5 package
2. Uncompress and untar /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.18-5.tar.bz2
3. Symbolic link /usr/src/linux --> kernel-source-2.4.18-5
4. cp kernel-config to /usr/src/linux/.config
Would that be right???
Any help appretiated
Cheers
Charles
