Thanks for the pointer. I have now downloaded the tar ball of linux-2.6.23 and patched the kernel with the scst patch as specified in - 3. But when I am building (make) the same, I am encountering the following error:
/usr/bin/ld: section .data [ffffffffff700900 -> ffffffffff700917] overlaps section .text [ffffffffff700600 -> ffffffffff700933] /usr/bin/ld: arch/x86_64/vdso/vdso.so: section .data lma 0xffffffffff700900 overlaps previous sections /usr/bin/ld: arch/x86_64/vdso/vdso.so: section .note lma 0xffffffffff700918 overlaps previous sections /usr/bin/ld: arch/x86_64/vdso/vdso.so: section .eh_frame_hdr lma 0xffffffffff700954 overlaps previous sections /usr/bin/ld: arch/x86_64/vdso/vdso.so: section .eh_frame lma 0xffffffffff700988 overlaps previous sections /usr/bin/ld: arch/x86_64/vdso/vdso.so: section .dynamic lma 0xffffffffff700a30 overlaps previous sections /usr/bin/ld: arch/x86_64/vdso/vdso.so: section .useless lma 0xffffffffff700b20 overlaps previous sections collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [arch/x86_64/vdso/vdso.so] Error 1 make: *** [arch/x86_64/vdso] Error 2 [EMAIL PROTECTED] linux-2.6.23]# rpm -q gcc gcc-4.3.0-8.x86_64 As you can see above the compiler version that I am running is gcc-4.3.0-8. Any clues anybody? I am stuck here, please help me out.
