I have two simple questions regarding compiling Zaptel based on the
confusing (to a kernel newbie) instructions at
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+Zaptel+Installation.
The instructions say:
For a Linux 2.6 kernel you may need to:
modify the EXTRAVERSION statement in Makefile so it matches what you
see in: cat /proc/version (see clarification in comments below)
make modules_prepare
and
ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.6.9-5.0.3.EL /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build
(replacing linux-2.6.9-5.0.3.EL with the appropiate value for your
system)
1, My EXTRAVERSION statement in Makefile is blank but the 3 lines above
contain the correct and current kernel:
VERSION = 2
PATCHLEVEL = 6
SUBLEVEL = 13
Am I to simply write in the next line as:
EXTRAVERSION = 2.6.13 ??
2, The instructions say to make a soft link in the form of
2.6.13-5.0.3.EL
I do not understand the -5.0.3.EL part.
What should I put in where it says -5.0.13.EL ?? What is it about?
