Arnold, Adding to my last mail , As you had suggested to use i386 or i486, but while copiling gcc I didn't specified the target and it took by its own i586,from where does this this extracts the target. Is it taking it from currently running gcc or from /proc/cpuinfo:this shows family:5. or from where. If this script takes the currect architecture, then does it mean kernel on k6-2 should be compiled as i586. For compiling gcc , when I do make bootstrap continuesly without cleaning, I can see it copiles few lines more than where it stopped last time, so whats happening . memtest86 didn't show any memory error? and memory can be the problem as suggested by http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/ , if this happens. Can you please advice me what should I do next and please also send me the currect steps of porting my image from one machine to another I requested you in my last mail.
