Hi all...

Any brave soul there is using a prerelease of gcc-3.3.1 to build kernels ? (don't know if RawHide or SuSE beta or any other have that, apart from MandrakeCooker).

yes, 2.4.2x and 2.5.7x build properly with Debians gcc-3.3.1 here (x86).

Quoted 4 lines

I have tried both with 22-pre2 and 22-pre4 and both hang. They can not start /sbin/init (or at least hang there). Once I got to a bash prompt with init=/bin/bash, and ls listed everything _twice_ and then hung.

console problems? are other gcc versions affected too?

Plz, can you tell me the exact version of gcc (date of snapshot or the like). My cooker gcc is:

- Update to 3.3-hammer branch as of 2003/07/03

Perhaps I can dig the gcc changelogs to look for something.

This is really strange...

Then ask your vendor about that, it's not the 3.3 branch. Hammer is maintained by (I think) SuSE people.

This is known to break many things for x86 (p3/4 as well as athlon). I have not checked it in some time, so not sure if all the issues we had was fixed. Rather stip the hammer stuff.

Cheers,
