Er, if it has no development environment, why are you bitching about the fact that it's not possible to compile kernel modules on it? The box which holds your firewall's kernel source can be used to compile extra out-of-tree modules. The directory /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build, while a reasonable _default_ for out-of-tree modules to use, should generally be overridable with a directory specified by yourself. -- dwmw2 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
