This does not work for me. kernel does not compile (rsynced benh-kernel
2.4.6 one hour ago)
Cause I´m not a programmer I do not know what´s wrong. This error exists
since 2.4.0 i think so.
So here comes the error-message:
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.4.6-0712/include -Wall
-Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer
-fno-strict-aliasing -D__powerpc__ -fsigned-char -msoft-float -pipe
-ffixed-r2 -Wno-uninitialized -mmultiple -mstring -DMODULE -DMODVERSIONS
-include /usr/src/linux-2.4.6-0712/include/linux/modversions.h -c -o
ethertap.o ethertap.c
ethertap.c: In function `set_multicast_list':
ethertap.c:161: request for member `groups' in something not a structure
or union
make[2]: *** [ethertap.o] Error 1

make[1]: *** [_modsubdir_net] Error 2

Thanks and bye,
