Hello Alan and the group.

AC> That sounds like you used binutils-2.7 - only 2.9 correctly links the AC> 2.0.37pre kernels
I've just compiled and installed 2.0.37-pre8 and booted with; GNU ld version 2.8.1 (with BFD linux-2.8.1.0.1) slackware 3.4
Everything seems to run as normal, except that i've noticed that "free" shows a more conservative memory status.

Realy all i'm interested in is ax25 netrom mkiss etc, and that all seems to work like a charm.
Do i really need to upgrade my Binutils. ??
Alan (and co-workers), your work is highly appricated, thanks. Where do i have to send the crate of beer.?
