apparently test7 has the same problem and when I compile test6 I get these errors:
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -m32 -pipe -mno-fpu -fcall-used-g5 -fcall-used-g7

so as far as I can see test5 is the last kernel that can be built and booted properly on a sparc10 with 512M of ram. All others after test5 do not boot my sparc10 with more than 128M of ram.

I just finished compiling 2.4.0-test5 and that

a long time.

I've not yet started active searching. However:
- test5 is fine
- test13-pre3 is not

I don't know how fast your machine is, but we

coordinate out
search... I'll try to build -test10final (with
minimal config to
only test boot) so that shouldn't take so very
long... You should
test sth around -test8...
