Re: Linux 2.4.28-rc2

Hi Marcelo,

just started a compile on alpha last night and looked at the results this
morning. 'make vmlinux' ends with the following errors. It is fairly possible
that it comes from my gcc/binutils combination (because I found that I compiled
previous kernels with gcc 3.2.3), in which case I will fix it later, but I'd
like someone with an alpha to check it on his side before the final release.

Cheers,
Willy
