Subject : Trouble with make-install from a NFS mount Submitter : Gregory Haskins <ghaskins@novell.com> Date : 2009-04-14 21:32 References : http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=123974482327044&w=4 Handled-By : "H. Peter Anvin" <hpa@zytor.com> Notify-Also : Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> This entry is being used for tracking a regression from 2.6.29. Please don't close it until the problem is fixed in the mainline.
I expect this bug to be fixed by the following commit: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=1648e4f805063137b55b869666e936ffd4419cdf ("x86, kbuild: make "make install" not depend on vmlinu"). Gregory - can you verify this? The commit is part of -rc6 that was just relased.
Sorry for the delay. I can no longer reproduce this issue on 31-rc2, so its probably fixed by the commit referenced by Sam.
