Compiling the Kernel - errors in make menuconfig ARCH=um
Hi,
I'm doing a Linux Systems Programming course, but I'm very new to Linux.
(I'm using Ubuntu linux, with gcc version 3.3.4)
I've got a copy of the linux-2-6-10 user mode kernel, and when I run "make menuconfig ARCH=um", I get the following errors:
HOSTLD scripts/kconfig/mconf
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lncurses
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
>>Unable to find the Ncurses libraries
>>
>> You must install ncurses-devel in order
>> to use 'make menuconfig'
I've tried "apt-get install ncurses-dev" but when I do the make menuconfig again I get the same errors.
Any suggestions...
I'm really out of my league with Linux :-) Please help.
Thanks in advance.
