Strange build error in boot/wrapper script

Strange build error in boot/wrapper script

[Gerhard Pircher]

Hi,

I get a rather strange error here with kernel v2.6.26-rc1 and gcc version
4.1.2 20061115 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.1-21) (cross compile version).
This is the output of the build process:

As you can see, the wrapper script generates an incomplete cuImage. The
vmlinux.strip file is there, but I wonder why it is so big:

> -rw-r--r--  3225085348 2008-05-06 21:58 vmlinux.strip

Any ideas what is going wrong here? Broken compiler?

Thanks!

regards,

Gerhard
