hello ppl
I'm not sure if I have subscribed to correct list; but however; here is my question; hope that someone can help me:
I'm trying to compile mkinitrd from development pub of fedora from src. I'm using gcc 3.3.2-5 also from development
pub. However I get error massage that nash is not found; so it doesn't seem like compile error to me; but I'm not so experienced
about this. Below is error:
install -m755 installkernel /var/tmp/mkinitrd-root/sbin/installkernel
chmod 755 /var/tmp/mkinitrd-root/sbin/mkinitrd
install -m644 mkinitrd.8 /var/tmp/mkinitrd-root//usr/share/man/man8/mkinitrd.8

Searching on the webb I have found that nash is some simple shell interprter written for initrd.
Is this file missing from mkinitrd package or should I get something else that rpm forgott to check for?
Or can it be because of some other error? Hope someone have a clue ...
its a source rpm so... type rpmbuild <name>
or rpmbuild -rebuild <name>
well yeah :)
if you don't mind this output that I have pasted above was produced be typing rpmbuild --rebuild to be honest.
so that part seems to be pretty behind me;
Sorry I don't want to be untankful; thnks for your answer, but I rather need some help about why compile fails;
why is nash missing there?
