linux and mklinuximage take 2
From reading the configure scripts, I have found that my system does
support '-oformat binary' but the problem appears to arise over the fact
that in the configure script, 'flux_cv_HAVE_CODE16=no'. To create the
mklinuximage script flux_cv_HAVE_CODE16 must equal yes.
I don't have any idea what this means or how it can be fixed.
Again, any help appreciated.
