egcs64 has always been the suggested way to compile kernels from ultrasparc. Nothing else has ever been suggested or supported up to this point. However, I think Dave is making it a point to get gcc-3.2 able to build kernels. As for 2.5.40 on Blade100, I just got a kernel built on mine, and I'm about to reboot myself. -- Debian - http://www.debian.org/ Linux 1394 - http://www.linux1394.org/ Subversion - http://subversion.tigris.org/ Deqo - http://www.deqo.com/
