<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>What is the process to cross-compile some custom
drivers for a voyage device? The kernel is "Linux 2.6.8-486-voyage"
<-- that is the output of 'uname -sr' . But I do not know exactly which
version of Voyage this is (changelog: -
kernel-image-2.6.8-486-voyage_2.0-2).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>In particular, I wish to compile some of the new
madwifi drivers and replace the "shipped" version of the drivers for the
kernel.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The wiki seems to be down at the moment,
too...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>cross compiling is easy enough for a 2.4.x kernel,
but I seem to not be able to figure out how for a 2.6.x :( My latest
attempt errored out and said nothing was configured ( no
include/version.h) . </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I download the generic source (linux 2.6.8) from
kernel.org, i then 'make menuconfig' and load the config file from the /boot
directory. ?? so what did I forget?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks all.</FONT></DIV>
