I tried 1.2 and 1.3. I expect you did compile for Kernel 2.4 ?
I guess I will at least give the build machine the old SuSE 8.0 back...

I don't really want to remove FC2 from my Notebook, that means I have to
keep trying.

Yes. DL has 2.4, host system - 2.6

You can compile DL for kernel 2.4 but not 2.6?

Where does it abort?  On the kernel compile?

I'm running SuSE 9.1 (2.6 kernel based), and haven't had any problems
compiling a 2.4 DL, but I haven't tried compiling a 2.6 DL.

Both don't work and at least the 2.4 must....

No, different places. Currently one  machine doesn't like gcc, the other
pwlib. Both applications shouldn't cause any trouble, they didn't get
modified for quite a while.

It's probably worth a try with SuSE 9.1.

That's really weird.  I'm not a big fan of Fedora.  I switched to SuSE
shortly after upgrading to FC1 and running into problems (not DL
related).  I haven't tried FC2, but I've heard of other people having
problems.  (YMMV :)

I can run a 2.6 compile on SuSE 9.1 and see what happens.  What should,
or shouldn't I select in menuconfig?  Is there a profile for 2.6?

Yeah I get that impression, too.

No need for this, but thanks anyway.
The 2.6 compile is not stable yet, I actually had on my list for this week
to fix most of the problems there.
But as I mentioned, the 2.4 compile *must* work...

I'm currently downloading the personal edition of suse 9.1, this is enough
to do some testing.

I haven't had any problems compiling 2.4 DL on SuSE 9.1.  I haven't 
run a full compile for a couple weeks, but I plan on running a full
mrproper/new-lfs soon for a new DL box I need to install.

I can let you know how it goes ...

All the RPM's are available for SuSE 9.1 professional.  You can do an
install of professional over the internet.  Or, I've heard that you can
install the personal edition and then download/install the professional
RPM's if needed.

That would be great.

That sounds interesting, I'll take a look at it tonight.

I just remembered something, isn't Fedora using that "Exec-Shield" stuff ?
Unfortunately I already wiped out my FC2 installations, but that could 
be the cause of the problems. I think there was an option to disable it 
via /proc.
