My first attempts to compile the 2.4.27 kernel on my Amiga 2000/2060, with gcc-3.3 (the one installed together with Sarge 3.1r5) ended after about 3 hours at exactly the same spot as Yours. The problem are two dummy declarations in linux/include/linux/init.h, or as the comment in the file says: "[...] /* These macros create a dummy inline: gcc 2.9x does not count alias as usage, hence the `unused function' warning when __init functions are declared static. We use the dummy __*_module_inline functions both to kill the warning and check the type of the init/cleanup function. */ [...]" I simply commented out the two static inline declarations on lines 134 and 138, and then it worked. Because of the 68060 module load problem, I compiled a monolithic kernel (no modules) with the things I need. It took about 4 hours, but I have Linux on a not very fast HDD. As a by-product, the system clock problem , which caused my clock to be off by 1 hour (it showed UTC, but I live in UTC + 1), disappeared! I thought this wasn't fixed until 2.6.x... My specs: AMIGA 2000/Blizzard2060-50, 92MB Fast-RAM, X-Surf Ethernet, Picasso-II, Linux on IDE HDD. Linux/GNU sources installed from Debian package 2.4.27, m68k-patches applied. Compiled with gcc-3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-13) , for 68040-60. The X-server does not work, so I plan to upgrade to 2.6.x, but since the Picasso-II (cirrusfb) does not work yet (I tried 2.6.18-4), I wanted a good system to work on first... (Strangely enough, I had a few sightings of X a week ago: It happened after I first booted from 2.6.18-4 once, then from 2.4.27, which launced X successfully.) I hope this helps You to compile a custom kernel too, Stephen! Regards, -- Christer Oldhoff Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
