Hello yesterday i installed redhat6.2 on our little alpha server over here. It's an Ruffian EV56 system, and a hand upgraded redhat to be able to cope with 2.4.
I got an compile error that told me that pte_alloc was declared wrong in some files.. Then in the back of my mind i figured that Andrea does a lot of alpha work, so i grepped after pte_alloc in his patches.
I found: ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/andrea/patches/v2.4/2.4.3/alpha -numa-2
Now my kernel compiled, and it works great. (Thanks Andrea :)) Just a little gotcha if anyone gets this problem (now it's in the mail archives, where i didnt find it).
Andrea: Is that patch harmless, or is it experimental? Is there any other patches you recommend me to apply to my kernel?
Regards
Magnus Naeslund
