Source Code installation for 9.2
Why is 9.2 such a bitch when it comes to installing the source code rpm's?
I have tried all sorts of things urpmi fails, i have used the easyurpmi website to get some neat lins of code that should do stuff but dont work
I have downloaded kernel-source-2.4.22-10mdk.i586.rpm 5 times its md5 sum is correct everytime, from 5 different mirrors
uname -r reports this is the correct kernal ,
(I even got kernel2.4-marcelo-2.4.22-1mdk.src.rpm
that wont install either)
Firstly it complains that the D3A signature is BAD , i typed
rpm - i --nosignature ....
then it compains the MD5 is bad so i put that in and then is complains that the md5 digest is bad so i put that in ...
rpm -i --nosignature --nomd5 --nodigest kernel-source-2.4.2.2-10mdk.src.rpm
after this it goes off and grinds for awhile and then reports Bad Magic cannot install this rpm
WTF?
I am logged on as root
All I want is the source code for linux to install itself so i can get on with installing my SMC2635w wireless network card.
been driving me mad
anyone please help...???
Drakepackage adder thing requests CD1 I put cd1 in and it spits it out and asks for CD1 again, obviously source is not on CD1.
thanks people
