Linux

Hmmm… I got a couple of new (to me at least) Linux distros today on the cover of a magazine; Morphix 0.3.5 and
EnGarde Secure Linux Community Edition 2.0. I really need to get back to using Linux a little more often. Maybe I should give one of these a try. Morphix is a live CD so it should be a breeze to have a play! Time to give the servers sat under my desk a kick!

Linux From Scratch - Kernel Problems (again)

More kernel compile problems. This time I get the error
cp: reading ‘tlan.o’: Input/output error
But this time I can’t find any references on google.
The file exists in the ./drivers/net/ directory, and I can copy it by hand. Strange. Ah well, I’ll try setting the build off again, now I’ve copied it by hand.

Linux From Scratch - Problem

Oh dear, I still have this error trying to build the kernel.
tridentfb.c:254: #error “Floating point maths. This needs fixing before the driver is safe.”
It’s a bit of a pain as I don’t have a trident card. I guess I’ve got a module turned on that I don’t need. I’ll try to find it in the config menu and turn it off.
