The key you provided for file access was invalid. This is usually caused because the file is no longer stored on MediaFire. This occurs when the file is removed by the originating user or MediaFire. Still have questions, or think we've made a mistake? Please contact support for further assistance.

Same error with 64bit-kernel5.1.7.tar (92 M)

System used: Android, most current Chrome Browser.

Update
Since Android Chrome created issues with several web pages in the past I installed Dolphin as backup browser and http://www.mediafire.com/file/6erh7v2zd ... l5.1.7.tar downloaded okay with Dolphin.

neko...a request.:

Long ago, porteus dev team and you, enabled , the following in Kernel COFIG, on my request.

Since implementation of pcieport 1.2 and 3 had some problems with different board manufacturer, Kernel function to Automatic Error Correction (AER), I thought, will help.

But, in practice, AER has become like a spam in dmesg, continuously, acting to rectify, same message running into 100s of lines.

Code: Select all

So, please, disable this line in CONFIG, when you make v 5.2.

Code: Select all

CONFIG_PCIEAER=y

Though ASPM too is not working in my system, get only few errors.

Thanks.

@Rava
Please forgive me for the late reply.

When the build sample is uploaded, the old version is deleted due to the capacity limitation.

The latest is already up.

Postscript:
A lot of problems have come out and I am confusing now with APorteus's major remodeling.

[neko]

1. "Porteus Kernel Builder" was updated.
2. Most recent versions of build examples were updated.
3. The example of replacement the kernel of another distri which uses OverlayFS/AUFS was updated.

Thank you for your information.
I have built the new "devel.xzm" module for 64Bit APorteus.

Most recent versions of build examples that were built with gcc-9.1.0-x86_64-1 were updated.

Note:
Version 5.1.13 & 4.19.54 were missing.


Thanks.

neko, I have a suggestion for you. Instead of calling from mkKernel.sh this:

Code: Select all

make -j4

You can detect how many CPU threads the machine actually has by doing this:

Code: Select all

CPU_THREADS="$(nproc --all)"
make -j$CPU_THREADS

[neko]

@fulalas
Thank you very much for your helpful advice.
I will change the shell script (Compile.inc) at next "Kernel Builder" update.

[New Compile.inc]
/usr/local/share/mkKernel/inc/Compile.inc ---> new.Compile.inc

Code: Select all

% diff new.Compile.inc /usr/local/share/mkKernel/inc/Compile.inc
45,46c45
< CPU_THREADS=\`nproc --all\`
< make -j\$CPU_THREADS
---
> make -j4

--------------------------------
Now, I have uploaded 64Bit APorteus ISOs for building kernel with new "Arch gcc 9.1.0" compiler.
ArchLinux packages manager for Porteus (Post by neko #72441)

Note:
"Compile.inc" of these ISO is not yet updated.


Thanks.

[fulalas]

Great!

[Rava]

nproc --all

Thanks fulalas for that heads up.

Thats the amazing thing with Linux, you always discover new stuff CLI-wise, no matter how many years of decades you already have used it.

Code: Select all

Looks good.
