[Users] Kernel 2.6.20 with openvz-patch on Ubuntu Feisty Fawn (7.04)

[Dieter Schicker]

Hi,

this is my first post to this list, so I want to say: Thanks to openvz
for this great piece of software!

I have a problem with compiling a kernel with the openvz-patch. Here are
the steps that I undertook:

1) Download Kernel 2.6.20 from kernel.org
2) Apply openvz patch with "patch -p0 < patch-ovz005.1-combined"
3) Used my original kernel configuration from Ubuntu 7.04
4) make xconfig
5) make-kpkg clean
6) make-kpkg --append-to-version custom --initrd kernel_headers kernel_image

Here's the error message that I get when running step 6:


...

Does anybody have an idea what's wrong here?

Many thanks in advance and cheers
