Hi Xiao:
I am not an expert at this. All I can say is that I have gotten it to
work. I will tell you what I did to get it compiled, and I hope it can
help you. It sounds like you know how to compile a kernel under normal
circumstances, so I will not get into that.
1) I downloaded the kernel from kernel.org.
2) I downloaded the ipvs patch (use the single patch)
3) I downloaded the hidden patch.
4) I uncompressed the kernel source in /usr/src
5) I uncompressed the hidden patch in /root
6) I uncompressed the ipvs single file.
7) I copied the hidden patch to /usr/src/linux
8) I executed: patch -p1 <hidden-2.4.5-1.diff
9) I copied the ipvs patch to /usr/src/linux
10) I executed: patch -p1 <linux-2.4.18-ipvs-1.0.2.patch
11) I did a make menu config, and configured my kernel
12) I did the exact same steps you did to compile it: make dep;make
clean;make bzImage;make modules;make modules_install
I didn't have any glitches.
Things to watch out for:
-Don't apply each patch more than once!
-If it didn't work following these steps and you have RH 7.2, make sure you
have all the gcc packages installed. If you must, put the cd back in the
drive, and do an "upgrade", and install the tools necessary
-If that isn't it, make sure your gcc is up to date. An easy way of doing
this is by downloading red-carpet from Ximian.org. It is an Xwindows
updater. You do not have to have gnome to run this (anymore).
-If this doesn't work, track down a *real* guru, cuz I am fresh out of ideas!
Hope it helps.

Hi Chris,
I am a subscribe of the lvs user... and also a newbee in using lvs.
I have some install questions need your help.
My linux is redhat 7.2 with 2.4.7-10 kernal.I wanna run lvs on it.
From the linux-lv.org, I know I need to upgrade my kernal to 2.4.18 to
run the lvs, so I download the kernal from kernal.org and unpack it to my
/usr/src directory.
I follow the instruction of lsv to make lsv 1.0.2 patch on kernal then
compile kernal with netfilter and ip visual server. During this, I use
make xconfig, then make dep, make clean, make bzImage, make modules, make
modules_install. But each time, I run make module , make modules_install,
I get some error while gccing the lpvs.
Can you tell me which is the right way to install ipvs on redhat. (I know
you have make it work successfully).
Thanks a lot
xiao
