Hello Björn,
Thank you for the reply, Now I am trying to build latest litmus-rt with
latest kernel (3.10)and ubuntu RFS for qemu-KVM and I am not sucessful in
doing the same. Can you help me by either providing a pointer to solving
this problem or if u have the image which i can use to further proceed
would be of great help.
I went through litmus-rt website for this image but it was an old image.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Gokul Vasan
