Build requirements

In order to compile AQuoSA, you need:

• GNU Make 3.81, available on most Linux distributions, or directly from the GNU ftp site
• The Linux kernel sources, available from http://www.kernel.org. The new IRMOS SMP scheduler requires kernel 2.6.30.10, whilst the old AQuoSA scheduler supports a variety of versions ranging from 2.6.2x to 2.6.34.
• For the new IRMOS SMP scheduler, the -irmos kernel patch. For the old AQuoSA scheduler, the Generic Scheduler Patch (GSP) to the Linux kernel. Both are available from the kernel-patches package of the AQuoSA downloads page
• GCC version 2.95, 3.x or 4.0.x
