I've been trying to recompile my kernel and ran into
an error during the "make bzImage" phase.  I'm using
the 2.4.19mdk kernel on Mandrake 9.  FYI, among other
things, i've got an ECS K7S5A mobo w/ AMD XP 1700 &
Savage 4 Pro video card w/o TV out.


Here is where I'm guessing the error message starts:

--------------------------------

--------------------------------------

I see that there's some issue with the EISA bus and/or
with the video setup.  At first, it looked like a
"linux logo" issue, but that was too amusing for me to
see it as realistic.

When in the menuconfig, I deselected a lot of options
that did not seem relevant to my setup (since Mandrake
starts out by selecting heaps of things for you).  I
fear that maybe I deselected too many.

Any thoughts?

p.s.  Side question: Is there a way in Xterm or eterm
or another option to copy text (as above) and paste it
into another application?  I had to use Gnome terminal
to copy the above error messages into this email.
