Re: Compiling latest 2.6 bk snapshot on Alpha

[Balint Cristian <rezso@rdsor.ro>]

If using RedHat-7.2 based thing on alpha or older you can use my own maintained RH rawhide for alpha:

ftp.rdsor.ro/pub/Linux/Distributions/AlphaLinux

There can find very latest gcc/binutils/glibc shaga, it must fit OK with any redhat for alphas.

I have no problem compiling latest kernel with tham.
