Error when building Linux profile

[kawbin87]

Hi All,

I have been trying hard to create a Linux profile but I ran into error when I build it.
The machine I want to analyze is a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.10 (Oracle Linux Server release 6.10)

Below is the error msg:

root@:~/volatility/tools/linux# make -C /lib/modules/4.1.12-112.14.15.el6uek.x86_64/build CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y M=$PWD modules

Thank you

I'd say you're using a version of gcc which is too old and thus can't build the kernel or kernel modules.

It's just a guess though.
