recommended gcc compiler version
This is a newbie question, but what are the recommended gcc compiler versions for compiling, Linux 2.2.18? Linux 2.4.0? I'd rather use the recommended version than not and have difficult bugs. Thanks. If there is a FAQ, kindy direct me to it, or, if this info isn't in there specificly, perhaps a FAQ maintainer can add this stuff. -- Robert B.

Re: ide-scsi problems with plextor IDE drive
I'm having the same exact problem with a Plextor PX-8432T CD-RW drive that another person reported back in March (see copy of message by person identified as "c o r e" below): Vendor: PLEXTOR Model: CD-R PX-W8432T Rev: 1.07 Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02 This is an IDE CD-RW drive on /dev/hdc, configured as a SCSI using ide-scsi emulation. It shows up on my system as /dev/sr0 and /dev/scd0 (I don't know what the difference is between the two device files, they seem to function the same). I cannot mount it! However, somehow (I have no idea how) I did manage to get it to mount once but after rebooting it would not mount again. Even though I can't mount it, I can write audio cds with it (and likely data cds too but I have not tried that yet). When the drive is configured as an IDE drive on /dev/hdc, I can mount it without any problem as long as I give mount -t iso9660. Without the -t iso9660 it fails to mount. Its very strange that I can write cds and play cd music off the drive, but if I try to mount it, it fails just like "c o r e" experienced below. Is there any fix for this yet? I'm using Linux kernel 2.2.16.
