From: mitchell@mdd.comm.mot.com (Bill Mitchell) Subject: SCSI, kernel lockups, pl12/pl11, gcc 2.4.5/2.3.1 Date: Sun, 5 Sep 1993 17:19:22 GMT
A few days ago I posted a bug report to c.o.l.development re SCSI
woes and kernel lockups with SLS 1.03. From email responses I've
gotten, I understand that I need to:
1. upgrade my kernel from pl11 to pl12
2. compile the pl12 kermel with gcc 2.3.1 instead of 2.4.5
I've got the pl12 kernel sources, but don't know where to find a
gcc 2.3.1 distribution set up for linux installation. I did find
gcc 2.3.1 sources and tried to build it. I had some problems there
but eventually did get it built - only to then realize that I'd
probably misconfigured it before the build, and don't know how
to configure/install it properly for linux.
Can anyone point me towards a gcc 2.3.1 distribution of binaries and
support files set up for linux installation? I think I may have a
set of SLS 1.02 disks which haven't been reused yet - - Might that
include gcc 2.3.1? If so, and it it's less than obvious where it's
buried, can someone give me some pointers on locating it and installing
it on my SLS 1.03 system?
Am I having fun yet? :)
