Subject: kernel compiles in 7.0

     I'm having some problems with the kernels that come with the 7.0
    package. If I install the default AXP kernel and config file into src
    tree
    it compiles and runs. I do a "make clean dep boot modules
    modules_install"
    then copy the map file and kernel over to boot. All works ok. When I
    try to add SMP to that .config via make xconfig there is no place for
    SMP. Ok I'll just install the SMP kernel and get it's .config file and
    see if it's there. Well it's in the the .config file but nowhere to be
    seen when I do a make xconfig. OK lets just try to complie it anyway.
    Noop it won't compile.
    Here is the last of the output:

    make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.2.16.SuSE/kernel'
    make -C drivers
    make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.2.16.SuSE/drivers'
    make -C block
    make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.2.16.SuSE/drivers/block'
    make all_targets
    make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.2.16.SuSE/drivers/block'
    gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2
    -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -D__SMP__ -pipe -mno-fp-regs
    -ffixed-8 -mcpu=ev5 -Wa,-mev6 -c -o rd.o rd.c
    rd.c:115: `CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_SIZE' undeclared here (not in a function)
    make[3]: *** [rd.o] Error 1
    make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.2.16.SuSE/drivers/block'
    make[2]: *** [first_rule] Error 2
    make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.2.16.SuSE/drivers/block'
    make[1]: *** [_subdir_block] Error 2
    make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.2.16.SuSE/drivers'
    make: *** [_dir_drivers] Error 2

    So I tried the TGA kernel and it's .config file. Again no place for SMP
    doing make xconfig. And it fails the same place. I have prompt for
    expermental code set to yes. It won't even prompt for reiser support.

    Is there somthing wrong with the lx_suse kernel source package or am I
    doing somthing wrong?

    I don't have this problem with the intel dist.???????
