How about...simply replace CC and HOSTCC inside the Makefile in kernel source's top directory with your preferred compiler? Of course, besides that, you need to be aware of certain incompatibility problem that might arise e.g. : does your compiler support support certain gcc extension that is used several time by Linux kernel (for example _builtin_expect() ) hope it helps regards Mulyadi -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
