Since you need to check each of them manually anyways, simply compile you kernel with "make V=1". But note that options like -ffreestanding, -msoft-float or -mregparm=3 will most likely not make any sense (and actually do harm) in your user space application ("info gcc" gives you more information on them). Besides this, at least the cpu options might not be optimal for userspace since the kernel doesn't use options like -march=athlon-xp that bring improvements only for floating point maths. > Thanks, > Jared cu Adrian -- "Is there not promise of rain?"
