Precompiled kernel with Nokia DKU-2

Hey

I'm having some problems, because I'm going to USA soon, and I'm going to have a mobile phone connected to my mobile phone, while I'm overthere, so I can send smses to my friends and so on
I have a Nokia 6230i, I will like to have connected to my computer
Otherwise I'm searching for a precompiled kernel, where usb_serial.h is included

 

I don't know where you can find such a kernel... Maybe it's easier to compile your own one?

 

I have given it a try, but it wasn't successful
I had a config-file, but it's failing everytime, so if someone can compile it for me, I will be very happy

 

Can you copy any output why it is failing and what you are doing stepy by step maybe it is easier to help then...

Is it failing while compiling or on reboot?

 

Shall I also copy the whole config file in here or?

It's failing on compiling

 

Just post this error for now.

 

Now I had compiled it with just this errors, who are written in the zipped log-file, I had attached.
Now I can't remember, what I have to do, and the howto, I had followed isn't avaible more
I had compiled the kernel with this commando:

Code:

make-kpkg --revision=custom.1.0 --initrd --rootcmd fakeroot binary-arch

Shall I just use this commandoes:

Code:

dpkg -i linux-image-2.6.17.11_custom.1.0_i386.deb linux-headers-2.6.17.11_custom.1.0_i386.deb

And then just reboot or what?

 

Ah I thought of compiling the "real" source from kernel.org with "patching" or adding the dku2 sources....

 

It was also my meaning, but I couldn't find out of how to do that, so I will make the DKU-2 driver as a module (as described on the http://www.gnokii.org/docs.shtml#dku2) when I can't find out of the other thing

 

Well I would use this:

For the first part I would download the actual kernel image from kernel.org,
unzip it in e.g. /usr/local/src
cd into the kernel dir
if you already have a kernel config for that kernel tree (eihter 2.4 or 2.6) copy it into that dir
run "make menuconfig" and change things which you need or do not need.
then run the above steps till make (excluding make) and run
"make bzImage modules modules_install"

then follow the rest.

at least do

cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/kernel-2.X.XX.X
cp System.map /boot/System.map-2.X.XX.X
cp .config /boot/.config-2.X.XX.X

the rest depends now on your bootloader config if it is lilo or grub...

 

I have done that, but I had used /usr/src instead

Wouldn't it mean, that I have to compile the kernel first to see, if

Shouldn't I have installed the kernel first (the .deb-files)? I'm using grub

 

Well the .deb are prceompiled packages I thought...
It's now matter how you first got your kernel, if you take the one coming with debian or compile one for your self...

I thought /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build is either a symlink, but did not check that....

 

Don't you have a messenger? It's much easier in that way, I think, because I'm so confused

 

At the moment not, I'm at work sorry. But just describe it here, maybe sb. else has any helpfull ideas...

 

I will do so
Now I had download and extracted 'linux-2.6.17.13.tar.bz2'
What shall I do now?

 

Shall I compile the kernel and then edit the kernel again or what do I have to do

 

Did you have a look at this tutorial? http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=21

 

Yes, but I thought, I should do something, before I had to configure the kernel

 

No, you must compile a new kernel, and when you run

Code:

make menuconfig

you must select all kernel modules you need.

 

Does that mean, I have to compile the kernel first or what?

It's easy, but when I run the command below, it says, that there aren't no rules to create the bzImage

That's what I have done until now
