Hiya there all... I know we just had some conversation about this but I
wanted to add my experience and perhaps find a solution.
I've compiled Kernels for a couple of years and haven't really had
problems until now. I'm "stuck" with a RedHat 5.2 installation (can't
upgrade to 6.1 for various reasons). I've upgraded my Kernel from
2.0.36 (the default) to 2.2.10 (no sweat). Everything is happy until
now.
I've compiled Kernels from version 2.2.12 to 2.2.14 successfully BUT
when I try to run "make modules" I get the following errors:
sbni.c:1375: Invalid `asm' statement:
sbni.c:1375: fixed or forbidden register 1 (sx) was spilled for class
DREG.
sbni.c:1377: warning: control reaches end of non-void function
make[2]: *** [sbni.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/user/src/linux-2-2.12/drivers/net'
make[1]: *** [_modsubdir_net] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.2.12/drivers'
make: *** [_mod_drivers] Error 2
The above compile was 2.2.12 obviously. Figured I'd try it again. My
"guess" is that I need to upgrade my glibc or libc. Can't think of any
other reason that this wouldn't work.
Comments?
I really appreciate any tidbits you guys can give.
