Thank you Avinash for your very prompt answer.
I followed your suggestion and looked for the typo in
/usr/src/linux/drivers/net/Config.in; I found it, but at line 331 (not 277).
However, I corrected it as you said and tried xconfig again, but it still
did not work. The result was:
[root@sirius /root]# cd /usr/src/linux-2.4.10/
[root@sirius linux-2.4.10]# make xconfig
rm -f include/asm
( cd include ; ln -sf asm-ppc asm)
make -C scripts kconfig.tk
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.10/scripts'
cat header.tk >> ./kconfig.tk
./tkparse < ../arch/ppc/config.in >> kconfig.tk
drivers/net/Config.in: 19: can't handle dep_bool/dep_mbool/dep_tristate
condition
make[1]: *** [kconfig.tk] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.10/scripts'
make: *** [xconfig] Error 2
[root@sirius linux-2.4.10]#
This time the error is supposed to be in line 19, which reads
dep_tristate 'General Instruments Surfboard 1000' CONFIG_NET_SB1000
$CONFIG_ISAPNP
But is it really there? The error looked for in line 277 was in line 331,
so...
What do you think of all this?
Regards.
R.B.
