Hi, Possibly this does not belong fully in this
thread, but the information could be helpful there
too...
I upgraded my kernel to 2.4.9 some weeks ago, then
found out that having RH 7.1 I had probably used
gcc2.96 which seems to be a NO-NO... On another PC I
installed Roswell, it still has gcc 2.96 on it! 
trying to downgrade to 2.95.3 (this was a few weeks
ago...) I realised it also had to be compiled (the
chicken / egg problem) someone on this list told me I
could compile it with 2.96 and then use it, another
source mentionned that RH had not managed to compile
their kernel with 2.96 and had included in the
distribution a kgcc which is an older compiler
(??!!??) and which one should use...
can you make some light on the matter?
Thanks in advance
Lionel
