I managed to compile a 2.4.2 kernel with our bleeding edge toolchain. I
had to get rid of the -mmad from the Makefile though. The kernel boots
and runs and I ran Bonnie over NFS as well as on an IDE hard disk. I
tried some other tests as well, and they all passed.
Without the -mmad flag, I see the following mad instructions below. No
"madd" though, just madd.s, madd16, mad, etc. So, can we get rid of this
flag in the Makefile?
