I just ran a distupgrade to debian unstable. I tried to compile my 2.4.2 kernel and I get this:
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.2/arch/i386/boot' ld -m elf_i386 -Ttext 0x0 -s -oformat binary bbootsect.o -o bbootsect ld: cannot open binary: No such file or directory make[1]: *** [bbootsect] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.2/arch/i386/boot' make: *** [bzImage] Error 2 I saw an error durring the upgrade though. It said "-oformat" had been changed out with "--oformat". When I manually ran the command: ld -m elf_i386 -Ttext 0x0 -s --oformat binary bbootsect.o -o arch/i386/boot/bootsect.o then it seems to compile just fine. Not a good thing... Thoughts?
