Hi,
Regardless of the interface or code, the compiler should be able to handle
this case properly. I agree simpler is better but I am more interested in
making sure this bug is fixed in gcc if it hasn't already been.
If not, I personally want to see it fixed since the code I wrote for

One look at that interface to printtree is all that is needed to see

I'm not familiar with LinuxPPC distro, but Linux requires a swap
partition to actually contain a certain signature. If LinuxPPC is
already using a partition as swap, then it should have that in it
already, and then the installation is ALREADY using it as a swap
partition, so you can skip that step

Hi,
I think the second double value is confusing the compiler into skipping a

This is wierd.

The problem is that the original CHRP boot disk for potato is ext2

I'm not a gcc guru either, but what is the function prototype for
printtree()? The rules for passing parameters vary by what kind of
parameters are passed. Also, make SURE you have the CORRECT function
prototype for printtree() in the function that calls it. A classic
problem is not having a
Hi,
Most of the bugs in passing parameters have been fixed by the 2.95.3 series

To see if it is indeed a parameter passing issue, I need to know what the

How did you do it?
The only kernel that boot on my RS/6000 44P 170 comes from SuSE.
But the install process die when it try to partition the disk.
I'd like to install it and install Debian after that
