OK, the statically compiled version is at: ftp://gil.di.uminho.pt/pub/users/strange/ldminfo sha1sum: 71c1451f9cbd1a4256bb072d4c930418acc8e2fb
Anyway, how to compile with the sources of: - linux-2.4.20 - linux-ldm-0.0.8
ldm=linux-ldm-0.0.8 kernel=linux-2.4.20
1. Decompress linux-ldm-0.0.8: curl -s http://dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/linux-ntfs/$ldm.tar.bz2 \ | tar xjf -
2. Enter the directory: cd $ldm
3. Decompress the Linux kernel sources: curl -s ftp://ftp.di.uminho.pt/pub/kernel/v2.4/$kernel.tar.bz2 \ | tar xjf -
4. Change test/Makefile to compile ldminfo statically: sed -e 's/ -o/ -static &/' -i test/Makefile
5. Correct KERNEL path in Makefile: sed -e "s,KERNEL.*=.*,KERNEL = $PWD/$kernel," -i Makefile
6. Force i386 arch in Makefile: sed -e 's/-march=.*/-march=i386/' -i Makefile
7. Generate kernel's option files: yes n | make -C $kernel ARCH=i386 oldconfig dep
8. Compile ldminfo and ldmutil: make ARCH=i386
This worked on a Centos 3.8, 32bits but running x86_64 kernel, but not on my Fedora 8. YMMV.
Shell script:
ldm=linux-ldm-0.0.8 kernel=linux-2.4.20 curl -s http://dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/linux-ntfs/$ldm.tar.bz2 \ | tar xjf - && cd $ldm && curl -s ftp://ftp.di.uminho.pt/pub/kernel/v2.4/$kernel.tar.bz2 \ | tar xjf - && sed -e 's/ -o/ -static &/' -i test/Makefile && sed -e "s,KERNEL.*=.*,KERNEL = $PWD/$kernel," -i Makefile && sed -e 's/-march=.*/-march=i386/' -i Makefile && yes n | make -C $kernel ARCH=i386 oldconfig dep && make ARCH=i386
