FC4 kernel compile issues
Some minor info about my machine:
KDE version: 3.4.2-0.fc4.1 Red Hat
Hostname: localhost.localdomain
System: Linux
Release: 2.6.12-1.1398_FC4
Machine: i686
now lets get to my problem(s):
I attempted to recompile the 2.6.12 kernel to use ACPI power managment since my computer is, well, at the very least VERY power hungry and I don't need to be heating up my apartment with it all the time. I would like to have the ability to suspend (or even hibernate) my desktop computer, as bizarre as this sounds.
So, I go and fetch the kernel's src.rpm that matches my kernel from RedHat's official servers and I install it. Now, the is pretty much what happens:
I am su'ed for the entire process, but I logged into KDE as my user
(1) make menuconfig
- bunch of crap spits with some warnings about signedness (what is going on here with the warnings?)
(2) make
CHK include/linux/version.h
CHK include/asm-i386/asm_offsets.h
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `init/main.o', needed by `init/built-in.o'. Stop.
make: *** [init] Error 2
[root@localhost 2.6.12-1.1398_FC4-i686]#
As you can see, I have a problem here. What is going on, why is make dieing on me, and how do I fix it?
