Hi all, Just trudging along trying to install ALSA. Have recompiled kernel to support VFAT, sound (with no modules), and loadable module support. Compiled the ALSA driver (finally), after realizing it was looking for sources in /usr/src/linux and inserting --with-kernel=/usr/src/kernel-source-2.2.12 (where my recompiled srcs live). Now though, a problem with recompiling the lib packages (alsa). On the mailing list archives, it says I might have to upgrade libc (suggestion was to upgrade to frozen/potato libc6)... Is it alright to have sources live as kernel-source-2.2.12? How do I change that to /usr/src/linux if I need to? 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? How do I actually get libc6 installed?
sorry for the multiple newbie questions, just excited to be close to having ALSA-SBLive! working.
