What platforms do it break with it ? Hmm, curious, the CONFIG_ARC64 macro? Indys and O2s use 32bit versions of the ARCS Prom, whereas Octane, Origin, and IP28 systems (and others) use 64bit. I suspect CONFIG_ARC64 is geared for these, but if it works on Indy's too, that's curious. --Kumba -- Gentoo/MIPS Team Lead "Such is oft the course of deeds that move the wheels of the world: small hands do them because they must, while the eyes of the great are elsewhere." --Elrond
