Does anyone have any ideas why the i386->mipsel cross toolchain at oss.sgi.com:/pub/linux/redhat/7.1/RPMS/i386/toolchain* fails to build vgacon.o in the kernel's drivers/video directory? I get the following errors from the assembler: {standard input}:4683: Error: expression too complex {standard input}:4683: Fatal error: internal Error, line 1980, ../../tools-20011020/gas/config/tc-mips.c make[3]: *** [vgacon.o] Error 1 Apparently the compiler has generated assembly which the assembler cannot handle. I compiled to a .s assembly file and line 4683 was simply 'sb $6,$5($3)'. Thanks, Roger
