I changed the file const.h so that I could use a >29meg partition and proceeded to run make from inside /fs. I keep on getting an error saying that ../h/error.h can't be found. But I can see that error.h is where it's supposed to be. What am I doing wrong? diana eichert eichert%uservx.decnet@ddnvx2.afwl.af.mil

Try to 'chmem' /usr/lib/cem to a large value. If I remember correctly, I changed it to 100K. I'm not using a RAM disk at all, so some time ago I doubled the size of all other compiler stuff in /usr/lib.

Essentially, the cc error messages can become very misleading when not enough RAM is available. I found that a 512K RAM disk for root is too much for a 1 Meg 1040 ST. I was able to successfully recompile the kernel only when I re-did the mkfs for the root partition to a reduced size of 256K. Rana Dutt rcd@mtuxo.att.com
