debian amd64 problem by beliar 2005-09-11 23:17:28
well, i decided i install a linux again on my pc, i decided i try debian this time.Cause i have an AMD64 Processor i downloaded the AMD64 Version (yeah, i know its not an official version right now)
After that i installed it after 'some' problems(including that i forgot that windwos stores it bootloader allways on c:)

Next step was connecting to the internet.I have a "AVM Fritzcard DSL SL" directly on the pc, no router. So i needed the drivers for that.Fortunately AVM has made a linux one, but only precompile for suse, the source is included so i 'only' need to compile those. Normally no prob, but apparently there was no make and gcc installed and not on the dvd. After i restarted windows and downloaded the gcc and all dependencies that were not installed i tried to compile again.
First it seemed it works but then i got the following error:

"/asm/processor.h array type has incomplete element type"

Ok, restarting windows and search the web.Found a solution, not for the kernel i use, but it suggestes using gcc 3.3(i got 4.0).
So i downloaded gcc3.3.

Next try:

"/asm/processor.h array type has incomplete element type"

Ok, searching again.I find out that the kernel i use (2.6.8-11-amd64-k8) was compiled by gcc 3.4 so i download this and try.Again:

"/asm/processor.h array type has incomplete element type"

Anyone know a solution,that is not to try the offcial i386 build(It took me about 14 hrs to download the first dvd)?
