Oddly, when I built my own kernel (i needed jfs support), i686 didn't work, the machine rebooted pretty much immediately upon loading the kernel. Built from the source tree in the kernel-source rpm (whatever it's called nowadays), set the hardware option in the kernel config but not mucking with the compiler environment at all. I rebuilt for i386 and it works fine. thanks again for all your efforts. danno
