Hello, I'm compiling a kernel for arch "Intel EM64T" on an amd64 host. I encountered a ld error such as this:
LD arch/x86_64/boot/compressed/vmlinux ld: i386:x86-64 architecture of input file \ `arch/x86_64/boot/compressed/head.o' is incompatible with i386 output make[2]: *** [arch/x86_64/boot/compressed/vmlinux] Error 1 Would the build instructions for a 32-bit only driver produce this error? With regard to the package mgmt facility on Gentoo, does the "local USE flag", "multilib" not necessarily work when emerging gcc? I tried adding that to my /etc/portage/package.use file and did not notice a difference when re-running emerge. I also tried to add it to /etc/make.conf, which did not seem to make a difference, either. Perhaps I need to do the stuff mentioned in "Gentoo Embedded Handbook" with respect to the program "crossdev"? Any general advice or related links will be greatly appreciated. Below, I've included the top bits of my `emerge --info`.
