[Cdemu-devel] ubuntu, cdemu and kernel requirements.

[Henrik S. <he...@ka...>]

Kernel 2.6.16 required?? That's just plain crazy. Is there some reason 
it is not possible to use any older 2.6.x kernel?
I'd really like to know more about the specifics. A workaround should be 
attempted.

Anyways. I did manage to get cdemu going on my ubuntu 6.06 box running 
kernel 2.6.15, without any changes to the sourcecode.

Recipy as follows:

Tweak makefile:
1) patch < Makefile.diff
2) make clean

Create build environment for default kernel: (tasteless ubuntu 
developers doesn't include this in their kernel-headers)
3) sudo -i
4) apt-get install linux-source-2.6.15
4) cd /usr/src/
5) ln -s linux-source-2.6.15 linux
6) cp /boot/config-`uname -r` /usr/src/linux/.config
7) make && make modules
8) exit

Compile cdemu:
9) make && make docs
10) sudo make install install-docs

I was able to mount BIN/CUE image and mount ISO9660 filesystem from it, 
doing this.


Sincerely,
Henrik Stokseth.
