Problems / PSP-7.50

[peter14]

Hi,
i try to install the NIC-Drivers from PSP-7.50, but it failed with error:

"A command, "rpm -bb --quiet --clean --rmsource ${RPMDIR}/SPECS/bcm5700.spec", necessary to complete the installation of this component failed with error code 1: "Operation not permitted"
Installation of this component FAILED"

Kernel sources exported:
cat /etc/exports
/usr/src/linux-2.4.21-306/ *(rw,no_root_squash,sync)

SLES 8

Any ideas?
Thanks.

Peter:

The error you mention usually indicates a problem with either the rpm command, or the ownership/permissions of the /usr/src/packages directory tree.

The listed command is attempting to build the NIC driver rpm package using the kernel source. Since the two preceding commands are not mentioned, I am assuming they completed normally, and if so, rule out the kernel source as cause.

Therefore, I would begin by attempting to run the command from a command line.
First, verify there is a tarball named bcm5700-8.3.17b-1.tgz in the /usr/src/packages/SOURCES directory.
Second, 'cd' to the /usr/src/packages/SPECS directory and run the command:
rpm -bb -vv bcm5700.spec

The output from this command should give an indication as to the cause of the error.
