Can anyone confirm? : :I think, in general, it's best to stick with 2.95 compilers for the :kernel. There are exceptions, but the easiest route is to use gcc-2.95 :for compiling kernel source. You can do this by editing the :kernel-source-2.4.20/Makefile and setting HOSTCC=gcc-2.95 and :CC=$(CROSS_COMPILE)gcc-2.95. If you have external modules you're :building then you'll also want to add CC=gcc-2.95 to the :environment. Like: : : CC=gcc-2.95 make-kpkg --revision foo.1 --bzimage kernel_image : :and then : : CC=gcc-2.95 make-kpkg --revision foo.1 --bzimage modules_image Thanks! That worked. I should pay closer attention - I didn't even know I still had 2.95 on the system after upgrading, if that's the word, to testing.
