Incidentally, the glibc-kernheaders package included with RH 7.3 creates those files as symlinks, I'm sure however that they were there for the compilation of glibc. The disconnect that I forsee, is that I will be running the 2.2.26 with kernel headers from a 2.4.x kernel - would this be the correct thing to do? I suppose I mirror the sentiments of DervishD on this from his post. -lev - 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/
