Date: Mon, 3 Aug 2009 14:04:59 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090803140459.02cea700@hyperion.delvare> (raw)

Hi Sam,

I am not able to build Linus' latest kernel on my oldest test system. I
get the following linking error at the end:

  LD      .tmp_vmlinux1
ld:arch/x86/kernel/vmlinux.lds:678: parse error

Which is:

ASSERT((_end - 0xC0000000 <= (512 * 1024 * 1024)),
        "kernel image bigger than KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE")

Apparently this assertion is relatively new, as I was able to build
kernel 2.6.29 on the same system. The system has binutils 2.14.90.0.6,
which is more recent than what is listed in Documentation/Changes
(2.12).

Any idea?

Thanks,
--
