Re: lock_kernel Error

Incidently, although lock_kernel has been used in the files I changed, they do not give the error. On the other hand fs/open.c, which I haven't changed gives the error. Any idea why this might be happening ? Thanks for the help,SP

Looks like a RedHat kernel.  Start by saving your .config file (perhaps mv
.config ..), then make mrproper, mv ../.config ., make oldconfig, make
dep, make bzImage...

cheers,
