Re: [PLUG] Kernel compile error message


adding the symlinks was the fix...all is compiled and humming along. 

Thanks for the quick responses!

Kernel sources includes look like this :
#include <linux/blah.h>
or
#include <asm/blah.h>
or similar.
That means these include files should actually be at C-preprocessor-default-path/linux/blah.h, etc.

C preprocessor default paths usually are /usr/include and /usr/local/include.
So, you supply links from your /usr/include to corresponding nodes of the unpacked kernel's tree

Like this :
cd /usr/include
ln -s ../src/linux/include/linux linux
ln -s ../src/linux/include/asm asm
