Re: Installing OSKit on Linux
Thanks to everyone for your help so far. It appears that this post from
Bart Robinson comes closest to my problem. In my previous post I didn't
mention that "./configure" successfully detected my machine type with the
old oskit. But NOW, when I try to run "./configure" on the old oskit it
can't detect the machine. Which seemed very odd to me if there's something
wrong with "oskit-0.96".
If I understand things correctly there is something broken in the Debian
O/S. I tried purging gcc and installing it again, with no effect.
I guess what I need to know is:
-which programs does "configure" access;
-what debian *.deb files should I remove and then reinstall, and in what
order;
-Is the suspect debian file in my kernel and therefore do I need to
reinstall debian from scratch? Possibly this is a question best put to the
debian user group once I can identify what part of the debian o/s is broken.
In addition, at the request of Roland McGrath, I have included the output of
the unedited "make" of the "linux/dev" directory below and the
"config.status" and "config.log" files as attachments. Hopefully this
doesn't create an excessively large e-mail for the user group.
