Hi all,

I have been working on Intel IXP425 MonteJade with old uClinux distribution, previously I used 2.4 kernel and was able to port and combinely compile Intel access libraries. 

As new uClinux distro is available, I was trying to compile 2.6 kernel. At the time of porting access libraries and microcode, I am getting errors mainly related to kbuild as it can not find libraries in proper path. Is there anything different to be done while compiling 2.6. I used my usual make as 2.4 kernel but no success.

I did the following with 2.4

  Ø       cd Snapgear
  Ø       mkdir modules/ixp425/ixp400-2.0
  Ø       cd modules/ixp425/ixp400-2.0
  Ø       copy the downloaded access library and microcode here
  Ø       unzip IPL_ixp400AccessLibrary-2_0.zip
  Ø       unzip IPL_ixp400NpeLibrary-2_0.zip
   
   Getting the related patch from snapgear site and apply it.

the same does not work with 2.6 and it gives me bunch of errors mainly related to paths as it does not find the files. 

what am doing wrong? 

please help

thanks

regards

parth
