Hi Zac, It does in fact start with a "-": VERSION = 2 PATCHLEVEL = 6 SUBLEVEL = 12 EXTRAVERSION = -gentoo-r3-RT-V0.7.51-11 NAME=Woozy Numbat I found the same link yesterday but I thought I was doing that part right. I checked it against a working Gentoo kernel and things looked similar. VERSION = 2 PATCHLEVEL = 6 SUBLEVEL = 11 EXTRAVERSION = -gentoo-r11 NAME=Woozy Beaver I also tried the string using underscores instead of periods but that didn't change anything about the message. I think it must be something about the way the patch file changes the Make file. I'll look there next. Thanks, Mark -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
