I patched the Kernel with the 2.4.3-ia64 diff file. I can do a 'make mrproper', and a 'make config' (It even recognizes the IA64 CPU), I can even do a 'make dep' but it doesn't let me do a make bzImage or even a make zImage. I tried looking in the make.rules and makefile to see what targets were options, but didn't find anything. What is the target make file? Is there any documentation on this anywhere? All I am trying to do is add ql1280 SCSI, AMI MegaRAID, and Intel EtherExpressPro 100, and SMP support to the Kernel. One other thing I noticed. With x86 version, you can select how much memory the Kernel will recognize (4GB, 64GB, etc..) There is 16GB in this server. Will the Kernel recognize all of it? Right now I have to do a mem=2G from the ELI loader. Ray McCaffity
