I hd applied the heat sink compound and the heat-sink/fan combo before fireing up the beast. Have been tweeking the bios settings and decided to recompile the kernel as it had been done last with a Cyrix6x86MX166. I then started getting results similar to yours [1] -m486 -malign-loops=2 -malign-jumps=2 -malign-functions=2 -DCPU=586 -c -o af_inet.o af_inet.c Next token is 93 (']') af_inet.c: In function `inet_ioctl': af_inet.c:954: internal error--unrecognizable insn: (jump_insn 56 55 57 (return) -1 (nil) (nil)) gcc: Internal compiler error: program cc1 got fatal signal 6 make[3]: *** [af_inet.o] Error 1 [2] vm86.c: In function `save_v86_state': vm86.c:90: internal error--unrecognizable insn: (jump_insn 514 510 515 (return) -1 (nil) (nil)) gcc: Internal compiler error: program cc1 got fatal signal 6 make[1]: *** [vm86.o] Error 1 [3] gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.2.11/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -fno-strength-reduce -m486 -malign-loops=2 -malign-jumps=2 -malign-functions=2 -DCPU=586 -DMODULE -DMODVERSIONS -include /usr/src/linux-2.2.11/include/linux/modversions.h -c -o ip6_fib.o ip6_fib.c ip6_fib.c: In function `fib6_del_route': ip6_fib.c:921: internal error--unrecognizable insn: (jump_insn 186 177 187 (return) -1 (nil) (nil)) gcc: Internal compiler error: program cc1 got fatal signal 6 make[2]: *** [ip6_fib.o] Error 1 and on and on. The only way to compile the kernel is to keep repeating the make bzImage. After doing that 10-15 tikes the compile completes and then you have to do the same for the modules compile! I am running at 100Mhz, not overclocked, and have tried setting the Gate A20 Option to normal and Fast with no change. I will let you know what else does/dosen't work when I finish. My last try will be loading slackware 3.5 back up on the new HD and see if it just might be a glib problem.
