Short answer: Yes. Somewhat longer answer: Cross-compilation is a capability of the kernel Makefile, but I'm uncertain as to the details. I've never had occasion to do any cross-compiles. > The highest ancient version of Fedora I have handy is Fedora > Core 5. Beyond that, I have Fedora 9 and Fedora 12.

That said, you should be able to take the source to the current F14 kernel and recompile. The config entries are there for CMOV and i586. For that matter, a plain vanilla kernel has the same config entries. --Dale -- (My gnaester hurts.) _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
