[SOLVED] error: command failed to execute correctly

Neo_The_User · 2009-08-22 22:21:56

Hi. I am trying to compile a kernel (2.6.30.5) and if I dont use a kernel that looks like X.X.XX and looks like X.X.XX.X(X) then it doesn't work. I followed this guide: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ker … rom_Source but it doesnt have an example when the kernel has an extra number or two after the first three sets of numbers. Please help. An exact yet very very simple PKGBUILD and kernel26.install file would be great. I can't figure out those PKGBUILDs in ABS that are around 100 lines of scripts.

ERROR:

Hello Neo_The_User!

By from /var/abs/core/kernel26/PKGBUILD:

_basekernel=2.6.30
pkgver=${_basekernel}.5

Was this PKGBUILD the starting point by you too ?

I'm using the PKGBUILD from the http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ker … rom_Source guide and all i did was change some things around. I am not working in /var/abs. I am doing this in my home directory like the guide says. I'll try changing my pkgver is a bit. Thanks for your response!

Starting point? ermm.... I don't know what you mean.

I will report back results and see if your change fixed it. Thank you so much!

It works, thanks again!
