linuxlee:/home/lee# zcat >/usr/src/linux/.config
bash: /usr/src/linux/.config: No such file or directory
there is a config file in the boot folder.
linuxlee:/home/lee# ls /boot
config-2.6.8-2-386 initrd.img-2.6.8-2-386 vmlinuz-2.6.8-2-386
grub System.map-2.6.8-2-386
when i typed 'make cloneconfig' it said;
linuxlee:/home/lee# make cloneconfig
make: *** No rule to make target `cloneconfig'. Stop.
do i have to tell it where to clone it to? would is just put it in
lib/modules/2.8.6-2-386/build
i then checked synaptic package manager and found the following kernel packages;
kernel-package
kernel-kbuild-2.6-3
i installed them and tried ndiswrapper again but got the same errors.
any ideas??
thanks
