Kernel configuration
 

Dear All,

I am working on iEi9454 motherboard and I want to boot from compact flash. Processor is Intel Dual core 1.8GHz.

On linux host machine (processor Intel Dual core 1.6GHz), I am trying to configure the kernel for above motherboard. After configuration, version.h file is not being created.

Please let me know what could be the problem.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks and Regards,
Tushar

You're doing something wrong - supply details and it may be possible to figure out what.
However - version.h is part of the kernel headers.

Perhaps you need to clean-up the source first. Do then retry the compile. If a failure still occurs, try to use the latest kernel.

More details are required to correctly answer you answer, still I will try to provide few possibilities.

Did you use some available configuration or created a one using $make(x/menu/g)config. It should generally create a version.h file. If you have directly modified the .config file then still you need to do a $make oldconfig

If you are using kernel 2.4, you may need to do make clean and $make mrproper and $make dep. With 2.6 this is not required.

You can always build kernel headers,
$make /include/kernel/version.h

If still your problem persist then please provide specific details of you problem.

Best Wishes,
