machine and installed RedHat 8.0 as a guest operating system . I want to built kernel . I used kernel 2.4.3 and did follow :

# cp  linux-2.4.3.tar.gz  /home

but the compilation has error as follow :

timer.c : 35 conflicting types for Ĺxtimeĺ
/home/linux/include/linux/sched.h:540 : previous
declaration of `xtime'

Kernel you are trying to build is incompatible with gcc you are trying to use. Use 2.4.26 kernel, or use gcc which is approved for 2.4.3 kernel. You cannot use gcc-3.3.3 for building 2.4.3 kernel...
