- I recently patched my 0.99.1 source with the patch for level 2. I knew I
- was probably headed for trouble when I got the infamous "previously applied
- patch" message in the middle of patching. Anyway, I also recently installed
- gcc 2.3.3. When I made the kernel, I got an error in unix.c -- wrong number
- of arguments to one of the functions. Well, I examined the diff file and
- my source file and discovered the problem and fixed it...I think. When I
- recompiled, everything went great down to the final link, where I got a
- undefined symbol _read_exec in fs.o. Now, is this a problem with my
- linux source, or is it a problem with my gcc 2.3.3 installation. I am
- using the i486 libraries and binaries, which I'm not entirely sure I
- installed correctly.
-
- Any help greatly appreciated.
