How to rebuild MOL

[Joseph E. Sacco, Ph.D.]

(1) Get the MOL SRPM from a source CD or YDL site and then install /
unpack it using:
	
	rpm -ivh  mol-0.9.71-0.ydl.1.src.rpm


(2) cd /usr/src/yellowdog/SOURCES

(3) unpack the gzipped tar file

	tar zxvf mol-0.9.71.tgz
	

(2) apply alloc_h.patch

(3) apply sheep.patch *only* if you are using linux-2.6 kernel headers,
i.e., you changed /usr/include/linux and /usr/include/asm. If you have
not updated the kernel include files that came with YDL-4.0, you do not
need to apply this patch.

(4) repackage the source

	tar zcvf mol-0.9.71.tgz  mol-0.9.71

(5) edit mol-0.9.71-config
uncomment CONFIG_TAP and CONFIG_SHEEP

(6) Build MOL RPM's
	cd /usr/src/yellowdog/SPECS
	rpmbuild -bb mol.spec

(7) Reinstall MOL RPM's
	rpm -e mol mol-kmods

	cd /usr/src/yellowdog/RPMS/ppc

	rpm -ivh mol-0.9.71-0.ydl.1.ppc.rpm \	
                 mol-kmods-0.9.71-0.ydl.1.ppc.rpm
