Hello everybody! Now I got my config file and some errors I got during the compilation. Most of the time compilation aborts due to internal errors (...got fatal signal 11; or ...got fatal signal 4). If these errors occured I restarted immediately! I'll attach my config file and a file containing three error outputs (except those described above) I got with this config. I also tried to compile using my 2.2.10 config, but the results are the same! I hope anybody is able to help! Would be great if I would be able to compile my own 2.4 kernel and finally will also be able to burn some CD-ROMs! Many thanx in advance Kind regards -- ======================== René Thol ------------------------------------ Multimedia Computing University of Ulm ======================== E-Mail: Ren...@gm... ======================== |

I wish you wouldnt attach binary attachments. If the error log is too large for the mailling list, then just educatively snip a small part - or even just post the last 40 lines.... anyway, your problem appears to be... well...starters - seem to be running out of memory. how much memory do you have and how much swap space do you have (AND ACTIVE!) 'swapon -s' which version of gcc/egcs are you running ? 'gcc -v' CONFIG_ALTIVEC=y why? CONFIG_PARPORT=y # CONFIG_PARPORT_PC is not set CONFIG_PARPORT_AMIGA=y iirc, only CONFIG_M68K_PRINTER=y works likewise CONFIG_PRINTER=y will probably only give problems. alan |

hi, > Sorry, but the last time I posted error-files, I was told to gzip them if they > are big and so I did! - try not having such big files to post :-) > I've got 128MB RAM and 128MB swap, I'll check the swapon -s today evening. okay - I have 96Mb RAM and about 200Mb swap. swap is hardly used, so that should be okay (so long as your swap is activated/used) > > CONFIG_ALTIVEC=y why? > > > > Thought this would give some speedup!

Amiga parport is broken in 2.4.x heads up! :-) okay, apart from the fact that its broken in 2.4.x this is the only config switch that needs setting for APUS printing, correct (need to know for future advice, FAQing etc) alan |
