Genkernel Error

Post #1 of 2 (4817 views) Permalink Problems running "genkernel all" Hello I am going through the procedure of installin Gentoo Linux on my hppa box, which is a 785/B2000 Visualize workstation. I have gone through the instructions in order and am now trying to run "genkernel all" since I haven't got enough experience to decide about the options in manual kernel configuration. Anyway, when I issue the command "genkernel all" I get an error message complaining about that a .config file is either not specified or not found. It is obvious that I am supposed to supply a .config file to genkernel. The question is how I do that and/or what step in the process I have omitted. Reviewing the guidelines I have gone through doesn't tell me what step I missed. BTW I am using a Universal CD to install from. What I have done (referring to Gentoo handbook): 4. Preparing the disks (>16MB boot, 1500MB ext3 for /var, 500MB for swap and remaining up to 9100MB ext3 as a fourth partition). 5. Installing the installation files 6. Installing the Gentoo Base system The steps "Code Listing 7: Verifying system profile", "Code Listing 8: Finding out if an additional profile exists" and "Code Listing 9: Switching to a 2.4 profile" make me a bit unsuer, but my intention is to stay with 2.6 which seems to be the default and recommended. I have also run "emerge genkernel" without complaints from the system. Can anybody put me on track again? I would appreciate it alot. Best regards and thanks in advance Per Liss Sweden -- gentoo-hppa [at] gentoo mailing list gmsoft at gentoo May27,2006,2:24AM Post #2 of 2 (4547 views) Permalink Re: Problems running "genkernel all" [In reply to] Hello Per, It looks like genkernel wants a valid kernel config that you'll have to generate. I don't think that anybody uses genkernel on hppa. It's almost not tested besides for livecd creation. I really recommand that you compile your kernel yourself. Even if it seems painfull, it's not that hard. If you have any issue, you can join #gentoo-hppa on irc.freenode.net and there will certainly be ppl to help you out. Honestly, I really don't feel like supporting genkernel for hppa. It usually produce useless kernels or broken one for y

I go to "genkernel all" as the handbook says and get the following error: grep /usr/src/linux/Makefile: no such file or directory grep /usr/src/linux/Makefile: no such file or directory grep /usr/src/linux/Makefile: no such file or directory grep /usr/src/linux/Makefile: no such file or directory * Compiling Linux Kernel .. for x86 *ERROR:Error: No Kernel Config Specified, or file not found! *--Grepping Log..-- *Gentoo Linux Genkernel: Version 3.0.2a *ERROR:Error: No Kernel Config Specified, or file not found! *--END LOG-- Any ideas as to how I screwed up this time??

I'm not a Gentoo regular, so I'm suffering their install procedures. I'm at Configuring the Linux kernel, and it failed with: (chroot) # genkernel all genkernel error ... Documentation/vDSO/parse_vdso.o: In function `elf_hash': parse_vdso.c:(.text+0xa4): undefined reference to `__stack_chk_fail' Documentation/vDSO/parse_vdso.o: In function `vdso_init_from_sysinfo_ehdr': parse_vdso.c:(.text+0x445): undefined reference to `__stack_chk_fail' Documentation/vDSO/parse_vdso.o: In function `vdso_match_version': parse_vdso.c:(.text+0x545): undefined reference to `__stack_chk_fail' Documentation/vDSO/parse_vdso.o: In function `vdso_sym': parse_vdso.c:(.text+0x6fa): undefined reference to `__stack_chk_fail' Documentation/vDSO/parse_vdso.o: In function `vdso_init_from_auxv': parse_vdso.c:(.text+0x7b5): undefined reference to `__stack_chk_fail' This is a somewhat known issue, and the fix is to set CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC=n (see here and here). I found CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC in two configuration files, but both are marked as autogenerated, do not edit. So I'm trying to pass CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC=n to genkernel. I've been through the genkernel(8) man pages but I did not see how to pass an arbitrary setting like CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC=n (it may be there and I could have missed it). I tried genkernel all CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC=n, but that resulted in an error: unknown option.... How do I pass CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC=n to genkernel? linux linux-kernel gentoo share|improve this question asked Mar 14 at 6:55 jww 2,412103681 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 1 down vote accepted I'm going to post an answer, but I'm not sure if its correct because I'm not really qualified to build kernels...
