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

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.

Debian has some amounts of 3.3.1 prerelease bits in -testing.

It seems to build bootable x86 kernels here in both 2.4 and 2.5.

(however, note my .configs only contain drivers and subsystems that are
absolutely necessary)

gcc-3.3.1 breaks kernel

[J.A. Magallon]

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).

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.

Any idead about what pice of code is being miscompiled ?
