Re: [microblaze-uclinux] SAMBA problem

Hello Jose, Cedris,

Can you please try the attached patch?  Apply from the toplevel
petalinux directory:

[user@petalinux]$ patch -p0 < petalinux-samba.patch

Then rebuild in the normal petalinux user build process.

I tested it here and it configures and builds OK - I haven't had an
opportunity to boot/run test it yet.

Please let me know if this works for you, and I'll roll the patch into
the next release.

Thanks,

John

P.S. To apply to a regular uClinux-dist (if not using PetaLinux), go to
uClinux-dist directory and

[user@uClinux-dist]$ patch -p2 < petalinux-samba.patch
