it seems like maybe you are missing a link... /usr/include/asm should be a link to /usr/src/linux/include/asm which will then link to asm-(arch) in the same dir. you can check the links by doing an "ls -l" of /usr/include/asm. you shouldn't have to move any of the include files into the dir you are compiling from, as they should always be checking /usr/include for them. /usr/include/bits/sigcontext.h merely includes asm/sigcontext.h... which means it's looking for /usr/include/asm/sigcontext.h thus the issue with the link mentioned above. i hope this helps, i sometimes have a hard time putting thoughts into text :) let me know if it's not this, we'll try something else, perhaps random blind guesses as to what it might be :) those are always fun :) -marisa On Tue, Nov 14, 2000 at 09:30:28PM -0600, x.y.f graced me with: > I tried the RH list and didn't get any takers.
