Hello!

I am trying to compile 2.4.25 UML kernel together with High Resolution Timers patch and it fails to compile saying the following during linking:

is there any solution to this problem?
or HRT patch is not supposed to work under UML at all?

You might do better on the HRT list (cc'ed).

I don't know what UML needs. I would have thought that jiffies would be defined... especially for things like do_fork. Which patch are you using?
