If you get an error such as that, it means you need to include it as either a module, or compile it into the kernel. It's not a problem with the doc, just a misconfiguration at config time. HTH, --Dan On 10/8/07, Jay Shah <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > I did try that link, but when I attemp

This should help out quite a bit, I just dug it up: http://www.howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_centos It shows you how to create a kernel for centos, starting with vanilla (official kernel.org) sources. You can patch that tree before compiling. HTH, Dan On 10/8/07, Jay Shah <[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi Pawel, I assume, you need to update your linux-headers. The include files in the kernel directory are meant for internal use and specify the interface of the kernel you build. The UML-Guest kernel itself is a user-space program that needs those definitions of the kernel that will host it. Try
