Hi,

I'm trying to install KVM using the git repos on Scientific Linux. The error occurs when I run make.

The kvm-53 tarball works fine, but something is getting misconfigured when I run "make -C kernel sync....". This error doesn't occur on Fedora Core. I installed kernel-headers using yum in the standard way

Has anyone experienced this problem with other RHEL clones like CentOS?

Thanks,
Cam

In reply to Cam Macdonell

Thanks for reporting the problem.

You do not need to "make -C kernel sync" with kvm-tarballs.

For more information look at http://kvm.qumranet.com/kvmwiki/HOWTO -- "Unpacking and configuring kvm components"

Yes, sorry, my language was unclear in that sentence. I wasn't running
sync on the tarball, just on the git repo.

Thanks,
