/usr/src/linux and inserting --with-kernel=/usr/src/kernel-source-2.2.12
One solution to this is to have multiple kernels in /usr/src/kernel-source-2.*.* and to have /usr/src/linux as a symlink to whichever you are using at the moment.
lib packages (alsa). On the mailing list archives, it says I might have to upgrade libc (suggestion was to upgrade to frozen/potato libc6)...
Ok, it's probably worth doing an upgrade anyway, especially if you installed off CD. Check the file /etc/apt/sources.list and make sure it has some sensible source servers in there - I have:
--- begin cut --- # Stable deb ftp://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free deb ftp://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/non-US stable non-US/main non-US/contrib non-US/non-free
# Security deb http://security.debian.org stable/updates main contrib non-free --- end cut --- ...in mine, as well as lines for the testing distributions and ximian software, but those above are a good starting point. Then, at the console do:
apt-get update apt-get -u upgrade
Is it alright to have sources live as kernel-source-2.2.12?
Yes,
How do I change that to /usr/src/linux if I need to?
... thru symlinks.
Because I wanted to boot an NTFS partition also, I did 'make zdisk' after 'make bzImage' (linux kernel how-to) so I could boot from diskette...is that the problem?
Okay, not entirely sure here, can't remember what's required for linux/NT dual boot. Anyone?
How do I actually get libc6 installed?
Try: apt-get install libc6
sorry for the multiple newbie questions, just excited to be close to having ALSA-SBLive! working.
No problem, happy to help where possible!
