It has to be on one of your installation cd's as '10' is part of the base system (not upgraded).

http://gulus.usherb.ca/pub/Mandrake/...10mdk.i586.rpm

have you tried installing the package using an rpm? or perhaps using urpmi to take care of package dependencies?

here is where the package is located with the relative path to the hdlist

ftp://mandrake.mirrors.pair.com/mand...andrake/RPMS2/

../base/hdlist2.cz

Hi all
Thank you for your help. I am able to install kernel header, still I am getting this error during compiling.

So what is wrong about C++ preprocessor ?

Thanks

configure: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check

and

checking for c++... no

would most likely indicate that you have installed the necessary C/C++/G++ development packages. You should be able to find them on your installation CDs. Use Mandrake's graphical package manager utility (I forget the exact name of the program) to query for and install the development packages; you'll need them (as well as the kernel source/header package) in order to compile from source.

Thanks a million DMR, eventually I have got it installed.

Glad to help, and glad you got it working!

And the rest of us?



You could just send me money instead.

You know Mike, I really think it's time to bring that little issue up with Brian again. I mean, even at $0.10 per response, you'd have made about $4K by now.

That was a couple of years ago. I've had a few raises since then.

BTW.. When I come down to visit you, just keep a lookout for the red Ferrari.
