Since the arch/sparc64 dir has been merged to arch/sparc, genkernel looks for the arch/sparc64/boot/image file, which doesn't find. COMMAND: make -j2 CC="sparc64-linux-gcc" ARCH="sparc64" image CHK include/linux/version.h CHK include/linux/utsrelease.h SYMLINK include/asm -> include/asm-sparc CALL scripts/checksyscalls.sh CHK include/linux/compile.h STRIP arch/sparc/boot/image kernel: arch/sparc/boot/image is ready * Copying new kernel image, symlinks not being handled by genkernel. * Same base version. May have to delete old image to make room. * Copying kernel: arch/sparc64/boot/image * to /boot/kernel-genkernel-sparc64-2.6.29-rc1 cp: cannot stat `arch/sparc64/boot/image': No such file or directory * ERROR: Could not copy the kernel image to /boot!
What I may have to do is add support for specifying multiple possible binary locations and loop through them until we find a good one.
agaffney: +1 on that solution, it's going to be needed for mips too I think (along with a config option for the actual kernel filename to pick when multiple output forms are used).
I just committed a fix for this to git. For sparc64, genkernel should now look for arch/sparc64/boot/image and then arch/sparc/boot/image. This is completely untested, so please be kind and do so for me ;)
Just a FYI: planning to request stabling of 2.6.29 in 1 week. Might be a good idea to do a hotfix release for the stable tree, but also I'm not sure when sparc will mark 2.6.29 stable.

Workaround for me was to stop compilation with CTRL-z, create a symlink in arch from sparc to sparc64 and resume compilation. Would be nice if a fix would go into stable genkernel. BR, Dustin

I've reverted the stabilization meanwhile.
I have stabilized genkernel-3.4.10.904 for all arches.
