I know, but egcs is still the recommended compiler for Kernel 2.4: "COMPILING the kernel: - Make sure you have gcc-2.91.66 (egcs-1.1.2) available. gcc 2.95.2 may also work but is not as safe, and *gcc 2.7.2.3 is no longer supported*." and rescue disks (to save space). What I want to know is what's the recommended (or most stable) release of egcs. 1.1.2 (egcs_1_1_2_release) or egcs_ss_19990913 (egcs_latest_snapshot), or any other snapshot. If 1.1.2, are that any problems fixed by patches ? And if it's OK to compile egcs with GNU C Library 2.2.4. Or it generates wrong code. I only need the C part. -- 0@pervalidus.{net, {dyndns.}org} Tel: 55-21-2717-2399 (Niterói-RJ BR)
