kernel compiles broken

2005-09-13 Thread Saurabh Asthana
Hi, I've had a few problems trying to build a fresh 2.6.10 or 2.6.11 kernel. Nothing fancy. With gcc-4.0 I get tons of warnings, and eventually it barfs when it gets to: > CC drivers/eisa/eisa-bus.o >cc1: warnings being treated as errors >drivers/eisa/eisa-bus.c:421: warning: pointer targets
