Thanks, but I meant what packages are needed for make menuconfig to function, as in when I enter the command the pretty blue menuconfig app starts instead of an error message.
In other words, I already have the kernel source installed and can use the make command, the hard to use one where you go through the list of questions in a preset order. What additional deb packages do I need to install so that make menuconfig will work? It it just bin86? I thought there were others. I installed all of these a long time ago after finding a page on the Debian site that told which packages were needed. Now I need to set up another system and I can't find that page. >Quoting David Densmore ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): >> what packages must be installed to use make menuconfig? > >A kernel-source package, its dependencies, recommendations, and >suggestions apart from kernel-package, which I'd heartily >recommend, and bin86, which is needed only on x86 architectures. >(i.e. check a kernel-source paragraph in the Packages file.) > >Cheers, > >-- >Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel: +44 1908 653 739 Fax: +44 1908 655 151 >Snail: David Wright, Earth Science Dept., Milton Keynes, England, MK7 6AA >Disclaimer: These addresses are only for reaching me, and do not signify >official stationery.
