I see several responses, but nobody bothers to mention that the current kernel makefiles take care of the header files automatically. If you have just installed a clean source package, then you should run a 'make mrproper' and then do a 'make config' (or xconfig or menuconfig), and the make script will automatically set up internal links to its own header directories. You should just be aware that the 'make mrproper' also appears to remove your '.config' file, so you should save it elsewhere if you have already run a configure. -- Carl Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
