Re: Newbie: ENBD on kernel 2.6?

Hi Peter

So, in summary, I should start from scratch, move the leXX typedefs 
outside the #ifdef __KERNEL_STRICT_NAMES, run the whole make as root, 
and voila!

Incidently, have you built successfully for 2.6.10 and 2.6.11 that you 
mention below? It may be easier for me to simply move to 2.6.10 kernel 
which is OK for us (or even 2.6.11).

Yes, I suspected from the error above that it might be a file permission 
problem in the kernel sources. That's why I tried running as root for 
the kernel stuff.

Incidently, will 'make clean' also clean out changes (tmp files) in the 
kernel sources?

Thanks for your help
