Very Computer

hi all,

When I compile the kernel, I get error like :-

gcc: Internal compiler error: program cc1 got fatal signal 11

When I type make again, it will go pass where the error occur and will
break down somewhere else.

Any ideas ?
I am using Red Had 4.1, gcc 2.7.2.1, Linux kernel 2.0.27

Thanks

Alex

Or install FreeBSD

It sounds like he's got the classic bad memory problems.  How will
installing FreeBSD help with faulty SIMMs?

I really don't want to start in on this thread *again*, but I'll say this
much: why doesn't *BSD have these problems?  Yet almost 1 in 10 Linux machines
do?  

I know the old standard response:
 "Well, what do you expect when the OS is actually exploiting the
capabilities of the system"

Well, to that I say, "maybe it's going a bit too far???"

An interesting question.  A quick check of DejaNews reveals that
people *do* get these signal 11 errors under FreeBSD.  I can dream
up a few hypothoses why it might be less frequent - fewer FreeBSD
users, more sophisticated FreeBSD users have better hardware, etc.

Alex,
A signal 11 error is hardware-related.  If you're comfortable
mucking around with your CMOS settings, check to see if you've
got an Auto Configuration option for Advanced Chipset (or similar).
If so, Enable it.  It sounds like you're memory access speed may
be a bit too fast.  Setting this lower may cure the problem.
Good luck,
David

I understand that Signal 11 is a memory-cpu coordination problem.
I had the same problem with an AMD-K5-100 with 16MB.

We tried changing SIMMS, but the problem persisted.

What we did was to underclock the AMD-K5 from 100Mhz down to 90Mhz.
This fixed the problem.
