Probably, but I think I found the reason. Whenever I build the kernel with "optimize for size" it hangs after an hour with intense net load and io load (I made a loop that dd if=/dev/cdrom) When I disabled "Configure standard kernel features (for small systems)" (gcc -Os) the problem magically went away. So I think its a bug in gcc version 3.4.4 (Gentoo Hardened 3.4.4-r1, ssp-3.4.4-1.0, pie-8.7.8) Makes me nervous because I have built everything with -Os. I can probably just report it on bugzilla directly? > -mike -- [email protected] mailing list
