I built it for Debian Sarge, however I had to use 2.6.11 sources (from unstable). 2.6.10 gives errors. Howto: GET CIFS SOURCES: apt-get install debhelper modutils kernel-package libncurses5-dev download "http://pserver.samba.org/samba/ftp/cifs-cvs/cifs-1.34.tar.gz " to /root for example cd /root tar xvfz cifs-1.34.tar.gz GET KERNEL SOURCES: apt-get install kernel-source-2.6.11 cd /usr/src tar --bzip2 -xvf kernel-source-2.6.11.tar.bz2 REPLACE CIFS WITH 1.34: mv /usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.11/fs/cifs /usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.11/fs/cifs_old mkdir /usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.11/fs/cifs cp -R /root/cifs-1.34/fs/cifs/* /usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.11/fs/cifs CONFIG THE KERNEL: I used the config file from 2.6.8: cp /boot/config-2.6.8-2-386 /usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.11/.config cd kernel-source-2.6.11 make menuconfig Include: File Systems --> Network File Systems --> CIFS support --> CIFS statistics MAKE THE KERNEL: make-kpkg clean; make-kpkg --initrd kernel_image INSTALL THE KERNEL: dpkg -i kernel-image-2.6.11_10.00.Custom_i386.deb --- Stefanos Karasavvidis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Did anyone build the latest cifs client (1.34) kernel module cifs.ko for > debian sarge or ubuntu? > If yes, I would appreciate if it can be made available somewhere, or > just sent to me by email. > > I have a 2.6.10 kernel. > A simple howto on building it would also be appreciated > > > Regards > -- > ====================================================================== > Stefanos Karasavvidis > Electronic & Computer Engineer, M.Eng. > e-mail : [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Technical University of Crete, Campus > Information Systems Center > Address: Akrotiri, Chania, 73100 > Tel.: (+30) 28210 37352, 37355 (central), 37766 (ENV.ENG. buildings) > Fax: (+30) 28210 37571 > _______________________________________________ > linux-cifs-client mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-cifs-client > __________________________________ Discover Yahoo!
