Intall RTLinux-3.2-wr on Debian 5.0.4

[rhf417]

My computer has Debian 5.0.4 (with kernel linux-2.6.26-2-AMD) installed. Processor is AMD64 athlon dual-core CPU.

I am trying to install RTLinux-3.2-wr. Below is what I did:

1) download a clean kernel : linux-2.6.26.8.tar.gz and patch : patch-2.6.26.8-rt16.gz
2) configure and build the kernel with the patch applied
3) reboot with the new kernel
"uname -r" shows "2.6.26.8-rt16"

4) download and unpack RTLinux-3.2-wr.tar.bz2 into /usr/src/rtlinux-3.2-wr, the execute the following commands:

cd /usr/src/rtlinux-3.2-wr
make menuconfig

I get an error message "Makefile: 66: schedulers/x86/Makefile: No such file or directory", which is caused by line 66 "include schedulers/$(ARCH)/Makefile" in file /usr/src/rtlinux-3.2-wr/Makefile.

When I go to directory "/usr/src/rtlinux-3.2-wr/schedulers", I find that there is no "x86" subfolder. The existing four subfolders are "alpha", "i386", "ppc" and "mips" respectively.

What should I do to "make menuconfig" successfully? Thanks.

After replacing x86 with i386 in /usr/src/rtlinux-3.2-wr/Makefile, 'make menuconfig' succeeds.

However, when I try to run 'make dep' command, I get another error:

rm -f .depend
