Description of problem: In the following places there needs to be soft links added to allow for compilation on an i686 architecture: /usr/src/linux-*/arch/i686 -> <same dir>i386 /lib/modules/{build,kernel}/arch/i686 -> <same dir>/i386 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.7-1.494.2.2 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1.compile something against the running kernel source, like vmware 2. 3. Actual results: compilation fails due to not finding 'i686' directory Expected results: compile Additional info:
this can only mean that the makefile for the program in question is really broken. (in addition usr/src/linux-*/ can't be used for building modules against the kernel)
