RE: [Ltib] Errors in functions and driver errors compiling kernel

[Kevin Wells]

Hi Enrico,

> drivers/net/lpc_eth.c: In function 'lpc_net_poll_controller':
Your 2.6.34 kernel source tree might be incompletely patched
due to earlier issues.

Try removing the ./ltib/rpm/BUILD/linux-2.6.34 directory and
then re-building. If it fails again, post the LTIB output for
the kernel build starting at where the 32x0 kernel patches are
applied.

thanks,
Kevin
