doesn't need it unless he's not on x86 ....but it looks like the 2.4.x doesn't use it either. Most of my systems are 2.2.x and 2.2.x requires it. I've always needed bin86 to compile. I just recompiled again to be sure and it is used: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/linux]# grep -i as86 make.log as86 -0 -a -o bbootsect.o bbootsect.s as86 -0 -a -o bsetup.o bsetup.s [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/linux]# which as86 /usr/bin/as86 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/linux]# dpkg -S /usr/bin/as86 bin86: /usr/bin/as86 (kernel 2.2.19 is what I compiled) nate nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
