Actually, it seems not so. The e100.o that comes with Red Hat is sadly not e100.o 1.6.6 (as recently updated on Intel's site) which fixes Intel's problems with their new STL2 motherboards; ergo I attempt to build from scratch. The steps you provided are more succinct than I've been using and I appreciate that. now if I can just figure out how to build this so my symbols resolve, I'll be super happy.
