It was also an RC1, upgraded through 2 and 3, and the final test was a clean 9.0 install. I did: make mrproper make menuconfig (seems to be needed for 3rd party modules) make dep make bzImage make modules make modules_install installkernel 2.4.19-16mdkcustom arch/i386/boot/bzImage System.map lilo (just for good measure) I don't have all 3 compilers installed like you do, though. Perhaps there is an issue there? Stew Benedict -- MandrakeSoft PPC FAQ: http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/ppcFAQ.php3 IRC: irc.openproject.net #cooker-ppc
