Hi,
Thanks very much for your replies and the valuable
info.
I am still not sure about the following:
1. Is this problem related only to kernels
downloaded from linux-mips.org or it is a more general
one?
2. Can someone point to a known to work 64 bit
versions of gcc and binutil for BCM1250 (the problem
that started this thread was actually a problem of the
mip64-linux-ld I was using).
Thanks,
Michael
