I have some kernel crashes which are cured by some gcc/binutils changes which I don't believe should make any differences. I thought I could take out the mips64 and -march patches. But wtithout them, the user applications seem ok, but the kernel crashes in all different places. I have to put them back in. They may be kernel bugs and my gcc/binutils changes may just hide them. BTW, what is the current 2.4 kernel patches for Algorithmics P6032? Thanks. H.J.
