Re: Kernel compile

[larrys lexis-nexis com (Larry Snyder)]

Another thing that might help is which compiler version you're
running.  There are some notes on the cygnus website about egcs
and linux kernels.  I had problems the first time I tried using
the egcs 1.0Xa (X=2 or 3 -- can't remember) last summer.  I snagged
and built egcs 1.1b from sources and making 2.1.12X has worked
fine.  I expect to have to do it again.  Just the way things seem
to be.  There were several threads late last summer about this,
available on the redhat archive.
