I'm using GCC as part of Potato (1999/10/29) on my PowerBook (G3 Series Lombard). Since about 1999/09/24 (my last working kernel) I haven't been able to successfully boot a new kernel. I've been using Paul Mackerras's archive (rsync samba.anu.edu.au::linux-pmac-stable) the whole time. My 1999/09/24 kernel (2.2.12) is the latest that won't boot without a machine check somewhere in modprobe/init/somerandomprogram.
It occurred to me that perhaps the GCC package has changed since then to make it unable to build usuable kernels. In short, is anyone using PPC Potato's GCC (2.95.1 19990816 release) and Paul's stable kernel (2.2.13 is latest) and getting bootable kernels? Is there some other compiler I should be using (older GCC)? -- Shaw Terwilliger ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
