Hi,
I am Xing, a PHD candidate in University of Utah. I am trying to compile and install an OpenVZ kernel in FEDORA8, but one error prevents me. The error is "No build ID note found in /var/tmp/kernel***". I have tried several ways to solve it but still failed. I introduced what I did to solve this problem and hope to get some help from you.
Hello Xing! I know nothing about OpenVZ and only a little about compiling Linux, but I thought I'd point out that Fedora 8 was retired over a year ago. No bugs will get fixed in Fedora 8 anymore, so it's pretty much off-topic on this list. I would suggest trying with Fedora 12 instead. I think you're more likely to get replies if you can reproduce the problem on a current version of Fedora.
~/openvz/ovzkernel-2.6.18-128.2.1.el5.028stab064.7.src.rpm
I see "el5" in there. Have you tried compiling it on RHEL 5 or CentOS 5?
