Hello, ...
I have some problems compiling kernels, that i don't understand.
Here is the last lines of the output of make vmlinux on a 2.2.10 kernel
patched to support apus builds.
ld -T arch/ppc/vmlinux.lds -Ttext 0xc0000000 -Bstatic arch/ppc/kernel/head.o

and here is some relevant info about the state of my system.
ii gcc 2.95.2-2 The GNU C compiler.
ii binutils 2.9.5.0.16-2 The GNU assembler, linker and binary utiliti
ii libc6 2.1.2-5 GNU C Library: Shared libraries and timezone
I used a .config that seems to work for other people that don't report this
kind of error.
Is there a tool to get a 'snapshot' of a debian system, saving all installed
packages and all modified config files, so that one can easily reinstall a
clean debian setup with the same packages and conifg files ? If not i may be
willing to do something such after i have wortking boot floppies for apus.
Friendly,
