I'm assuming with this you mean CONFIG_MK7, i.e. "Athlon/Duron/K7" in "Processor Family" under "Processor Type and Features" in the kernel configurator? At least it looks like this from your other mail with the failing .config. > It fails without any erroneous output at the very end of the build and > has been reproducible every time I've built with it enabled.

Right, can you try this with the upstream kernel, i.e. 1. get one from kernel.org 2. copy the .config into the directory where you've unpacked the sources 3. do 'make oldconfig' and then 'make menuconfig' and go and select Athlon build 4. do 'make -j3 > w.log 2>&1' so that you can catch the build output into w.log which you can send later Also, which build tools are you using, simply do ./scripts/ver_linux in the kernel source directory, catch the output and send it on pls. This should be all for now, thanks. -- Regards/Gruss, Boris.
