I thought I had the solution to this problem, but I was too optomistic, it (the problem) is still there. This is probably a side effect of my new Fedora11 install,- they don't seem to install as much, by default, as they used to. But, Im trying to build a 64bit version of linux-2.6.31.6 on a 64bit Petium4. Starting with the first compile I get error messages from nm saying that the file format is not recognized. Here is the output from both file, and nm, which appear to be inconsistent: File shows: reg@deneb kernel]$ file *.o microcode.o: ELF 64-bit LSB relocatable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped microcode_amd.o: ELF 64-bit LSB relocatable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped microcode_core.o: ELF 64-bit LSB relocatable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped microcode_intel.o: ELF 64-bit LSB relocatable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped test_nx.o: ELF 64-bit LSB relocatable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped while nm shows [reg@deneb kernel]$ nm *.o nm: microcode.o: File format not recognized nm: microcode_amd.o: File format not recognized nm: microcode_core.o: File format not recognized nm: microcode_intel.o: File format not recognized nm: test_nx.o: File format not recognized Almost looks like the wrong version of nm, but Im sure someone out there will have a better idea. There is only one version of nm on the system, and Im at a loss to figure out what's going on.
