[etherlab-users] ./configure not succeeding

[james.rowland at diamond.ac.uk]

Hi Jeff

I had to patch the ethercat master for my unmodified RHEL5 kernel 2.6.18 to fix the location of semaphore.h and some others, this may help although you will need to change the version string to match your kernel. Could something like this be merged by the developers for users of older kernels? I mostly use 2.6.33.9-rt31 but old kernel support is useful for programming serial numbers on stock desktops.
