I ran into this problem some time ago on my Ultra 10 running a 2.4 kernel/profile. I didn't keep any notes, so I'm not 100% sure about this, but if I recall I came to the conclusion that the 2.4 headers were the problem and there was just no mask in the 2.4 profile to prevent the newer, incompatibl

Let me clarify that I have a working installation of silo, but the above problem came up as I am trying to do a "emerge -e world". I had run a "emerge --depclean" and various stuff was removed, maybe something necessary for the emerge of silo. Here is the relevan section from /var/log/emerge.log

Thanks a lot for your help Martin. ;) As I said in previous replies, the only problem I face keeping me from moving to kernel 2.6 is its un-bootable size for sparc32. If there is a user running a 2.6 kernel on a sparcstation5 or the like, I would appreciate it if he can post his .config. Aggelos.

Like I said before, I highly recommend you just use the latest profile for the sparc it will give you a 2.6 kernel and such. I don't know the reasons why you still need a 2.4 kernel, but if you do still need it here is how I would go about setting up a overlay for an older profile. with an overla
