Thanks Bjoern for quick reply. 

Since you offered to help with link errors, here they are. Lets focus on
two errors first, solving them might give me some ideas about solving
other link errors.

1. l4/pkg/ankh/server/netlib/tg3.c:11644: undefined reference to
`pci_get_device'

This method is defined in
"l4/pkg/dde/linux26/contrib/drivers/pci/search.c". This file is getting
built into "dde-linux26". 

And "Ankh" links to "dde-linux26", so it should find the reference.

2. l4/pkg/ankh/server/netlib/tg3.c:11659: undefined reference to
`pci_dev_put'

This method is present in
"l4/pkg/dde/linux26/lib/src/drivers/pci/pci-driver.c". And is getting
built into "dde-linux26" also.


Thanks,
Shashi
