kernel 2.6.32-279.9.1.el6.x86_64 does not build from the source rpm's using the UNmodified config file and following the directions explicitly. Previous kernels build fine from the same directions. A little help from the developers would be greatly appreciated. while building I get this output: c1: warnings being treated as errors drivers/base/platform.c:621: error: 'platform_legacy_suspend' defined but not used drivers/base/platform.c:633: error: 'platform_legacy_resume' defined but not used make[2]: *** [drivers/base/platform.o] Error 1 make[1]: *** [drivers/base] Error 2 make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make: *** [drivers] Error 2 make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.wfx1kU (%build) Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.wfx1kU (%build) The first line is what troubles me as there are usually warning when building a kernel. Thanks in advance for some help. Seth Bardash Integrated Solutions and Systems LLC Colorado Springs, CO 80921 seth at integratedsolutions.org Failure cannot survive knowledge and perseverance!
