Fw: Question on [pptp-server] Redhat V7.0 and Kernel V2.2.16-22

[Simon Yuen]

Now, I created the bzImage successfully. The kernel also changed to 2.2.17. However, following problems occur.

eth0 can't activate. When I use "netcfg" to activate the eth0, it returns "Delaying eth0 initialization".
When I try to mount the floppy drive, it return "mount:/dev/fd0 has wrong major or minor number.
Do you know the reason?

    I followed the instruction in http://www.vibrationresearch.com/pptpd/example.html but I failed in "make bzImage". My Kernel is 2.2.16-22 and using RedHat 7.0. I also downloaded the http://www.vibrationresearch.com/pptpd/if_ppp_2.2.17.diff. Anyone know the reason.
    Following is the output message : make bzImage
    make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux/arch/i386/lib'

  You're using the wrong C compiler - RedHat 7.0 shipped with an experimental compiler.
  In the kernel Makefile (/usr/src/linux/Makefile) change "cc" to "kgcc" on or around line 25.
  (As I recall I made kgcc the default system-wide compiler when I had 7.0 - look at the symlinks
  in /usr/bin/*cc)

  You ought to consider upgrading the redhat completely as we're on 7.2 as of last week
  and 7.0 did have a few problems....
