| Description |
In make menuconfig: Target Architecture Features and Options ---> (/usr/local/src/qs850/linux-2.4.27) Linux kernel header location Please change "Linux kernel header location" into "Linux kernel source location" I always put /include behind the path because it specifically says 'header location'. Thanks. |

The thing is though, we do not want the Linux kernel source location. Generally speaking, Linux kernel source code is not directly usable to provide uClibc with the kernel header files we need. In the case of the 2.6.x kernel, it is entirely impossible to compile uClibc using the kernel source. Instead, we need sanitized kernel header files, such as are provided by http://www.uclibc.org/downloads/toolchain [^] and by http://ep09.pld-linux.org/~mmazur/linux-libc-headers/ [^] If you have some other suggested wording I am open to it, but the words "kernel" and "source" must not be included together or we will mislead people much worse than we do presently.... |
