Compiling Kernel -1.3.90
I am attempting to compile linux-1.3.90
and I get a segmentation fault.
The configuration includes scsi, ide, 3c509, NE2000.... drivers and
the IPX network protocol support.
I just compiled gcc-2.5.8 and gcc-2.6.3
to see if the compiler version makes a difference in these errors.
Compiler version makes no apparent difference in the errors
recieved when compiling the kernel.
I recieved the same errors when attempting to compile
kernel 1.3.87 also. So it sure looks like it is something I am doing
in the compile process or configuration.
the errors look like this:
ld -m elf_i386 -r -o kernel.o ksyms.o . . . . .
make[2]:***[kernel.o] Segmentation fault
make[2]:***Deleting file 'kernel.o'
make[2]:Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-1.3.90/linux/kernel
make[1]:***[first_rule] Error 2
make[1]:Leaving directory /usr/src/linux-1.3.90/linux/kernel
make:***[linuxsubdirs] Error 2
Is this an error at link time?
What would cause a Segmentation fault?
Any suggestions on how to correct the problem?
I used:
make mrproper
make config
make dep
make clean
make zImage
Then I get the Segmentation fault error.
