No, it appears the culprit is binutils. I just tried to compile 2.4.12-ac3 + Rik's vm patches and ld bombed out with the exact error described at http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=116041&repeatmerged=yes
Downgrade to 2.11.92.0.5-2 (it resolved the issue for me) and put binutils on hold using apt/dselect/etc. --- Dan Chen [EMAIL PROTECTED] GPG key: www.cs.unc.edu/~chenda/pubkey.gpg.asc On Wed, 17 Oct 2001, Alvin Oga wrote: > > hi ya craig > > did you use "make bzlilo" or sound like you did "make bzImage" > if so... take out stuff from the kernel ... > - turn it off if you dont use it > - PNP, Video for linux, ISDN, Linux Telephone, > - turn off all the graphics controllers you're NOT useing > - SCSI is not needed if you dont use those disks > - turn off RAID ( md, lvm ) if you're not using it > - use sound as a module if you gonna leave it in... > - turn off parallel port support if you dont have any parallel ide > devices > - turn off firewire, infared, amateur radio stuff etc > > than try again... > > have fun > alvin > > -- than harden your kernel... apply owl, lids, libsafe, etc > http://www.Linux-Sec.net/Harden/kernel.gwif.html
