Hi there I am trying to compile the latest(2.4.16) ppclinux_2_4 kernel for our custom MPC860 board and it wont boot(I get a signal 11 Oops).
If I reduce gcc flag -O2 to -O1 I get as far as the first call to printk() in emit_log_char() where it Oops(signal 11). If I replace the printk.c file with the one found in MV HLL 2.0 kernel, It will boot just fine. Then I change -O1 back to -O2 and I get an Oops again. This time halfway through the booting process. I can run the MV 2.4.2 kernel without problems. I am on RH 7.1 with almost all updates applied. Also tried to compile it on RH 7.0 but got the same result(signal 11). This looks to me like a compiler problem, has anyone else had similar problems ? Where can I find a "good" cross compiler for ppc 8xx which will run on RH 7.1?
