Re: [Devil-Linux-discuss] Fixing 1.4x build system

[Heiko Z. <he...@zu...>]

Garry,

1.4 only supports the 2.6 kernel. We might have been experimenting with 3.0
and that's why you saw it download.

You get the correct LFS system from our FTP server:
ftp://ftp.devil-linux.org/pub/devel/sources/lfssystem-for-DL-1.3.4_and_up/lf
ssystem-SVN-20070314-cleaned.tar.bz2

Stupid question, why are you even messing around with 1.4? I would rather
focus my energy on 1.6.

Best Regards
  Heiko Zuerker

Subject: [Devil-Linux-discuss] Fixing 1.4x build system

I recently needed to add an app to My Devil Linux 1.4x (previous last update
and  build was ~ May 2011) and while checking the repository packages
noticed that  there were several packages (last ~ Oct. 2011) I needed to
update so I did an  update-src during which I noticed that it downloaded a
3.0 Linux kernel. After  unpacking I did a make menuconfig to add the app I
needed as well as a couple  of other apps I decided I might need and dropped
a few that I no longer needed  and then through the entire configuration
menu. When I got to the menu entry to  select the kernel revision it only
had an entry for a 2.6 kernel. I went ahead  and did a "make prepare build
install iso dist" which failed in prepare because  it failed to find a (2.6)
kernel.

I then did a CVS update using cvs update -d -P which did not produce any
error  messages and then attempted to build it again:

 root:/data/build# make prepare build install iso dist
 mount: proc already mounted
 mount: none already mounted or /sys busy
 mount: according to mtab, none is already mounted on /sys
 make: Entering directory `/data/build'
 prepare: prepare                      log:
/data/build/tmp/LOGS/prepare/prepare
 make: *** [prepare] Error 1
 make: Leaving directory `/data/build'
 make: *** [prepare] Error 1

 root:/data/build# cat tmp/LOGS/prepare/prepare  ERROR  The lfssystem you're
using is not correct  Please download version 1.1

I tried to list the projects in the sourceforge repository to see if there
were  separate repositories for the 1.4 and 1.6 versions but the server does
not  support the ls command. I also tried checkout -c and it appeared to
show two  different sets of the same directories (1.4, 1.6 ?) but I have no
idea how to  differentiate between them.

How do fix or I re-install a fully updated DL 1.4 build environment ?

Thanks,

Gary Stewart
