Hello,

Please help me to make Linux kernel (vmlinux) 2.6.22 or above.
I want to use M5 with Full System(FS) mode for OoO Multi-Core processor
simulation. Now, I use M5-stable, and my target architecture is Alpha.
In addition, I need Linux kernel version 2.6.22 or above for FS mode
simulation.

So, I tried to cross-compile Linux kernel 2.6.22 and 2.6.27 by
reference to M5-Documentation 'Using linux-dist to Create Disk Images
and Kernels for M5
http://www.m5sim.org/wiki/index.php/Using_linux-dist_to_Create_Disk_Images_and_Kernels_for_M5'.
But, I failed making
cross-compile methods as described in M5-Documentation.
I find out previous discussions like my encountered cross-compile
failures in m5-users ML. Though, I couldn't achieve solutions.

Could you please help me to cross-compile Linux 2.6.22 or above? In the
bottom of this mail, I described the I tried Linux cross-compile ways.
On the other hand, If you succeeded making cross-compile Linux 2.6.22
or above, Could you tell me cross-compile environment and configurations?
I'd be glad to try with the configurations.

(If m5-team will permit, Please upload Linux 2.6.22 or 2.6.27 the same
as already uploaded Linux 2.6.13 in 'Full System Files' at
'Download M5 http://www.m5sim.org/wiki/index.php/Download')


Thanks in advance for your help.
