Hi all-
I was trying to compile the 2.0.36 kernel on my slink system to include
support for sound.
I went through the make xconfig deal and typed make dep and make clean
without incident. However when I tried to make zImage I got the
following output:
terra:/usr/src/linux# make zImage
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/kernel-source-2.0.36/include -Wall
-Wstrict-prototyp
es -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strength-reduce -pipe -m486
-malign-loops=2 -ma
lign-jumps=2 -malign-functions=2 -DCPU=686 -c -o init/main.o

I don't know C/C++, but I took a look at the the main.c file in the init
directory, and yes get_options is indeed of type char, but it means
little to me (other than the fact that my kernel won't compile).
I've been playing all day, and I installed the comm. 408 packages via
apt-get and it installed new versions of libc6 and some other stuff. I
am currently d'l'ing the 2.2.1 source (from potato) and no other files
were apparently selected by apt-get. I figured that maybe there was
something wrong with the 2.0.36 source(?)
Does anyone have any pointers?
TIA
