Hi there, I have a slightly obscure problem recompiling my potato kernel-source-2.2.17 on a P100 laptop.
I have a disk space problem and therefore tried to unpack the kernel sources on my other partition, which is a now redundant vfat partition that had win 95 on it. When I extract the tarball, I get the following error message: tar: kernel-source-2.2.17/include/asm: Cannot create symlink to asm-i386': Operation not permitted tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors And when I make menuconfig rm -f include/asm ( cd include ; ln -sf asm-i386 asm) ln: cannot create symbolic link asm' to asm-i386': Operation not permitted make: *** [symlinks] Error 1 If anyone has a work around I would be really greatful to hear it. The kernel sources seem to have bloated somewhat since slink as I never had this disk space problem then... And if anyone has any experience configuring a ESS1888 sound card to work I would be really please to hear from you. Kieren
