A.2.2 Compiling the Novell Client Virtual File System Kernel

Module on Workstations Running a Custom Kernel

If you have a custom kernel on the workstation, you must compile the Novell Client Virtual File

System kernel module so that it works with the custom kernel.

1 In a terminal, log in as root.

2 Unpack the /proc/config.gz file and copy the resulting config to the new name /usr/

src/linux/.config.

3 In the /usr/src/linux directory, enter the following command:

make

TIP: You might also need to enter make -C /usr/src/linux-obj/i386/$i

SUBDIRS=$PWD clean. The easiest way to do this is to copy the mk_novfs script and

change the BUILD_TYPE to "clean."

4 In the /opt/novell/ncl/src/novfs directory, enter the following command:

./m

The Novell Client Virtual File System Module is updated to match your custom kernel.
