I've been trying to compile kernel version 2.2.16 but have been running into
problems. The system I'm using is a an Acorn RPC with an arm610 processor
running Red Hat 3.0.3 kernel version 2.0.36. After downloading the kernel
source and patching it I started the compilation which failed telling me I
needed a later version of the binutils (2.9.5+ I think). So I compiled a newer
version and am now using that.

output from ld -v:
GNU ld version 2.10.90 (with BFD 2.10.0.12)

output from gcc -v:
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/arm-unknown-linuxaout/2.7.2.2/specs
gcc version 2.7.2.2

Now when I try to run make dep, after having been through the configuration of
make menuconfig I get the following error:

gcc -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -o scripts/mkdep scripts/mkdep.c
Assembler messages:
FATAL: Can't create /tmp/cca007921.o: Invalid bfd target
make: *** [scripts/mkdep] Error 1

Is this a problem with my version of gcc, does it need setting up differently? 

Sorry if there is an obvious answer but I couldn't find anything on the arm
linux website related to it.

TIA.

Gareth.
