Hello, I am new to the network boot scene, so my knowledge is minimal. I am currently attempting to boot a number of X terminals form a linux (RedHat 6.1) server. I have been following the Diskless-HOWTO. I have chosen the netboot package (netboot 0.8.1) to generate the tagged kernel image the must be placed on the boot floppy. Unfortunately I can not get netboot installed on the server. I keep getting compile time errors with make. I am using a recent version of GNU make utility (make-3.77-6) and libc-6 (glibc-2.1.2-11), as required. The "configure" script completes successfully as does "make clean". However when I run "make" I get the errors (see below). Any help or source to reference would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time, Dan Brennan Errors from make: making all in include make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/local/netboot/include' make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/netboot/include' making all in misc make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/local/netboot/misc' making all in romcheck make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/local/netboot/misc/romcheck' /usr/bin/bcc -0 -Ms -I. -I../../include -c -o main.o main.c /usr/include/stdlib.h:33.19 (from main.c:22): error: cannot find include file stddef.h /usr/include/stdlib.h:80.36 (from main.c:22): error: need ';' /usr/include/stdlib.h:201.41 (from main.c:22): error: multiple types in declaration /usr/include/bits/types.h:29.19 (from /usr/include/sys/types.h:30) (from /usr/include/stdlib.h:339) (from main.c:22): error: cannot find include file stddef.h /usr/include/sys/types.h:124.19 (from /usr/include/stdlib.h:339) (from main.c:22): error: cannot find include file stddef.h /usr/include/alloca.h:25.19 (from /usr/include/stdlib.h:492) (from main.c:22): error: cannot find include file stddef.h /usr/include/stdlib.h:706.22 (from main.c:22): error: need ';' /usr/include/stdlib.h:709.22 (from main.c:22): error: need ';' /usr/include/stdio.h:33.20 (from main.c:23): error: cannot find include file stddef.h /usr/include/stdio.h:38.20 (from main.c:23): error: cannot find include file stdarg.h /usr/include/_G_config.h:14.19 (from /usr/include/libio.h:30) (from /usr/include/stdio.h:57) (from main.c:23): error: cannot find include file stddef.h /usr/include/libio.h:48.20 (from /usr/include/stdio.h:57) (from main.c:23): error: cannot find include file stdarg.h /usr/include/libio.h:368.27 (from /usr/include/stdio.h:57) (from main.c:23): error: need ';' /usr/include/stdio.h:442.19 (from main.c:23): error: need ';' /usr/include/stdio.h:445.20 (from main.c:23): error: need ';' /usr/include/stdio.h:450.28 (from main.c:23): error: need ';' /usr/include/stdio.h:452.29 (from main.c:23): error: need ';' make[2]: *** [main.o] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/netboot/misc/romcheck' make[1]: *** [all] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/netboot/misc' make: *** [all] Error 1 =========================================================================== This Mail was sent to netboot mailing list by: "Daniel J.
