Hi all, If anyone has successfully compiled 2.6.0 kernel(from kernel.org) plz help me out. I have the following tools: GCC 2.95.3 Gnu Make 3.78 binutils 2.12 util-linux 2.10o module-init-tools 0.9.9 procps 2.0.9 I did make menuconfig. and started compiling using make bzImage and got following error: SYSCALL arch/i386/kernel/vsyscall-int80.so /usr/bin/ld: arch/i386/kernel/vsyscall-int80.so: Not enough room for program headers, try linking with -N /usr/bin/ld: final link failed: Bad value collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [arch/i386/kernel/vsyscall-int80.so] Error 1 make: *** [arch/i386/kernel] Error 2 Why did make fail.. and is it related to version of binutils( ld -v) that is causing the problems? If so what is the correct version to compile? Can anyone give details of their configuration which was successful in compiling the kernel.
