安装vwmare5.5.1时出现的问题，关于gcc

jiangguo

安装过程及错误提示如下：
Your kernel was built with "gcc" version "4.0.4", while you are trying to use
"/usr/bin/gcc" version "4.1.2". This configuration is not recommended and VMware
Workstation may crash if you'll continue. Please try to use exactly same
compiler as one used for building your kernel. Do you want to go with compiler
"/usr/bin/gcc" version "4.1.2" anyway? [no] yes

What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
kernel? [/lib/modules/2.6.16-2-686/build/include]

是不是我的gcc4.1.2的版本太高，要换成gcc4.0.4的版本才行啊？

我遇到同样的问题。
使用sid的2。6。17的内核就可以了。

应该是要换成gcc4.0.4的版本才行

编译内核的编译器的版本要和编译vmware的版本一致。目前，Debian etch的2.6.16内核是用gcc-4.0编译的，而sid的2.6.17是用gcc-4.1。因此要么换成匹配的版本（kernel2.6.16-gcc4.0或kernel2.6.17-gcc4.1），要么用默认编译器重新编译内核。
