From: jwromei@cs.vu.nl (Romein JW) Subject: cc1 is killed by signal 4 Date: 2 Apr 1993 18:54:51 GMT
My brother bought a new computer and I new memory for my old computer.
Since then, I cannot compile a program without having the kernel kill cc1
(or sometimes as) every 5 minutes or so with the message:
"Internal compiler error: program cc1 got fatal signal 4"
which means that it tried to execute an illegal instruction.
If I retype the 'make' command again, it continues compiling for another
few minutes.
I exchanged the memory of both machines, but the problems disappeared only
when I installed the old memory in my old computer. Therefore I suspect
both the new memory and the new computer (bought in different stores)
but the strange thing is that the memory does not generate any parity error
and runs flawlessly for hours with several memory test programs.
Both machines require memory of at least 80ns, the old memory is 70ns and
the new memory 60ns.
I am using linux 0.99.7A, gcc 2.3.3 and libc.so.4.3. These are the
configurations of both machines:
386DX25, 8 SIMMs of 1Mb, 60ns, Seagate 105 Mb, ext-fs
486DX33, 4 SIMMs of 1Mb, 70ns, Connor 170 Mb, ext2-fs
Any suggestions ?
Thanks in advance,
John
