Kernel 1.2.11: problems building with new ide driver

Kernel 1.2.11: problems building with new ide driver

Post by Samuel A. Finebe » Wed, 28 Jun 1995 04:00:00



I have been trying to build the Linux 1.2.11 kernel and am having
trouble with the new ide driver (I had the same problem with 1.2.9 and
1.2.10 as well).  When I configure the kernel to use the new ide driver
and build it I get the following error:

gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -m486 -c ide.c
ide.c:234:base/index register must be 32 bit register
ide.c:235:base/index register must be 32 bit register
ide.c:236:base/index register must be 32 bit register
ide.c:304:base/index register must be 32 bit register
ide.c:305:base/index register must be 32 bit register
ide.c:306:base/index register must be 32 bit register
make[2]: *** [ide.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-1.2.11/linux/drivers/block'
make[1]: *** [driversubdirs] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-1.2.11/linux/drivers'
make: *** [linuxsubdirs] Error 1

I am using gcc 2.6.3.  I would appreciate any help.

Thanks,
Sam

1. Problems compiling new kernel 1.2.11

I got new kernel 1.2.11 (my old one is 1.0.9) and tried to compile it.
I followed all the steps correctly.
created symbolic links, did "make config", "make dep", "make clean"
and everything went well.
THen i did "make zImage"
and then I got these messages:

make[2]:entering directory /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/compressed
gcc -I /usr/src/linux/include -O2 -DSTDC_HEADERS -o xtract xtract.c

ld: malformed input file (not rel or archive) /usr/lib/libc.sa () <----- MAY BE
                                                        THIS IS THE ERROR !!

make[2]: [xtract] Error 1
make[2]: leaving dir /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/compressed

make[1]: [compressed/vmlinux] Error 2
make[1]:leaving dir /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot
make : ***[zImage] Error 2

But I have "vmlinux" file created. It's not compressed.
Also I'm wondering how to find the version of gcc we are having.
Any pointers please..
