Hello

As I've so far not noticed any such post - maybe it's just me.

But I simply can not build usable SMP 2.4.2x kernel
with gcc-3.2

Whenever I use gcc-3.2 - the compiled kernel just immediately
reboots machine - Exactly the same kernel with same configuration
compiled with gcc-2.95 works normaly.
The box is Abit BP6/256MB Ram/Matrox G400 with 2xCelerons

I've just seen slightly different behavior with various
versions - sometime it just locked the box (i.e. GRUB screen
has stayed on the screen and I had to press 'reset' button
myself)

Ok - what should I do to help fix this problem - as I've said
I've tried various configuration - I don't think there
is something special in there (http://www.fi.muni.cz/~kabi/.config)

$ gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-linux/3.2.3/specs
Configured with: ../src/configure -v
--enable-languages=c,c++,java,f77,proto,pascal,objc,ada --prefix=/usr
--mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info

How about using a released gcc compiler not a snapshot. gcc 3.2.1
and 3.2.2 appear to work fine. According to the FSF there is no
gcc 3.2.3 yet, so it isn't suprising a snapshot would have bugs
