Stop looking at me like that..

Compiled a new kernel today -  2.6.34.5-tamina

Encountered 2 errors -

Error no 1 (something to do with lguest):

make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux’
/usr/bin/make  EXTRAVERSION=.6-ast01-lw  ARCH=i386 \
-C Documentation/lguest
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux/Documentation/lguest’

make[1]: *** [lguest] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/Documentation/lguest’
make: *** [debian/stamp/build/kernel] Error 2

Solution :

cd /usr/src/linux
nano Documentation/lguest/Makefile

Changed this line

all: lguest

to

all:

Error no 2 (something to do with the version of kernel-package):

make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux’

Solution :

cd /usr/share/kernel-package
sudo cp -v ruleset/misc/version_vars.mk{,.orig}
sudo cp -v ruleset/targets/common.mk{,.orig}
wget http://bit.ly/krnl-pkg-ptch
sudo patch -p1 -i kernel-package-11.015.patch.txt

And all that, took me half my Sunday. But it was all worth it.

 

Edit :

Some users claimed that turning off “Processor type and features” and “Paravirtualized guest support” solved the lguest error above. The problem is apparenty due to the old libc-dev package that Lenny comes with.

ath5k to madwifi-ng

Reminder: ath0 is madwifi, wlan0 is ath5k (i choose the 1st one)

no crazy un-motivational pix right now. straight to business.

this is for changing wireless module for Atheros 5007EG (AR242x 802.11abg) in my Acer Aspire 4315 notebook from ath5k (originally installed by Debian Lenny) to madwifi-ng and using it for aircrack-ng.

1. do a lsmod | grep ath5k to make sure you have that ath5k module

2. move or blacklist that ath5k module. 2 ways, either:

a) locate ath5k.ko & move it to a safe place then do a depmode -ae, OR

b) blacklist it by adding “blacklist ath5k” (no quotes please) in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist (that’s for debian)

the 1st option works for me.

3. reboot

4. ifconfig ath0 down OR ifconfig wifi0 down

5. svn -r 4073 checkout http://svn.madwifi-project.org/madwifi/trunk/ madwifi-ng

6. cd madwifi-ng

7. wget http://patches.aircrack-ng.org/madwifi-ng-r4073.patch

8. patch -N -p 1 -i madwifi-ng-r4073.patch

9. ./scripts/madwifi-unload

10. make

11. make install

12. depmod -ae

13. modprobe ath_pci

if you’re using wicd don’t forget to change your wireless interface in the preferences menu.

(i’m too lazy to type all the commands above. just copied it all from here

done.
