Have you updated all the softwares as specified by the file Changes in the
Documentation
directory of your kernel source tree?
In particular for 2.4.17 at least:
o Gnu C 2.95.3 # gcc --version
o Gnu make 3.77 # make --version
o binutils 2.9.1.0.25 # ld -v
o util-linux 2.10o # fdformat --version
o modutils 2.4.2 # insmod -V
o e2fsprogs 1.25 # tune2fs
o reiserfsprogs 3.x.0j # reiserfsck 2>&1|grep
reiserfsprogs
o pcmcia-cs 3.1.21 # cardmgr -V
o PPP 2.4.0 # pppd --version
o isdn4k-utils 3.1pre1 # isdnctrl 2>&1|grep
version
I also have R.H. 6.2 and I did many upgrades to have 2.4 running.
It is not sufficient to have a successful compilation for a successful (and
safe) system running 2.4 kernels.
Bye,
Gianluca
