Hi Ken,
    1) I don't know it is scrolled out of my buffer.
    2) a binary driver for what? The motherboard is built on the nvivia 
chipset and the host OS is FC5 running on the target system. Other than 
the SATA drivers I had to force load everything else that is loaded went 
in automatically during the install of FC5.
    3) FC5 installed 2.6.15-1.2054_FC5 #1 SMP
    4) The whole test phase for glibc was "flaky". The make of the 
package went through as far as I know without errors or at least none 
that killed the make. When I did the make check it quit as some point. I 
don't remember exactly where. I restarted it and it died again at the 
same spot. I started asking questions on the IRC channel and people 
asked some back and while trying to duplicate the problem the make check 
ran through the point of the last die and died at a later point. I 
started it again and it ran farther. Again the same thing and it ran 
farther. After I made the post I blew away the build directory and 
recreated it and picked up in the book from that point. Again the make 
did not error out. The amke check ran to the point of the error that I 
posted. I restarted it and it ran to completion with nor further 
problems. I continued in the book and completed the installation of 
binutils with as far as I can tell no problems. I don't like "flaky" but 
as long as the only thing that is flaky is the test suite then I don't 
care. At this point I am going to continue building my system. I will 
watch for "flaky" behavior with the system as I build it but if the only 
thing that doesn't work is the testing. I'll keep pressing on and see 
how the system looks after it's finished. As long as the final system is 
stable I'll be happy. Unless you really love pain I am willing to drop 
this one unless I reach a point where the system itself turns unstable. 
Thanks for your input. I'll post the outcome unless something else comes up.

Arnie
