this is on a stock pinstype install. I was board this weekend and picked up an amd k6-2 500 and fic mbd. system has 128 meg of ram. install went fine however, I wanted to play with 2.4t5 and see how well it worked on this system. I downloaded the latest 2.4t5 tar.gz from kernel.org and unzipped and un tared to a directory under /root. frome here I did an mv /linux /usr/src/linux-2.4.0-test5 removed teh current sym link to linux and re set as ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.4.0-test5 /usr/src/linux cd to linux ran make clean ran make menuconfig added amd k-6 proc famley added usb removed scsi ( none on my box) added vt82688 sound support saved config ran make dep ( fine) ran make bzImage (crash) tried just a make (crash) tried make kernel (crash) same config will compile on a compaq (RH 6.2) at work and my toshiba infina ( currently suse 6.2) at home crash is alwase at the same point. here is a copy of compile gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 - fomit-f rame-pointer -pipe -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=k6 -fno-strict- aliasing -DUTS_MACHINE='"i386"' -c -o init/version.o init/version.c make CFLAGS="-D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict- prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=k6 -fno- strict- aliasing " -C kernel make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux/kernel' make all_targets make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux/kernel' gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 - fomit-f rame-pointer -pipe -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=k6 -fno-strict- aliasing -DEXPORT_SYMTAB -c signal.c gcc: Internal error: Segmentation fault (program cc1) Please submit a full bug report.

I forgot to say that if I change the makefile to use regular pent.. optimazations the compile will run fine.
use kgcc instead.
cool that worked.... it evenn works with test6.
I have just built our 2.4.0-test6-pre7 based kernel with CONFIG_MK6=y without a single problem. Please reopen the bug with a gcc -v -save-temps output of compilation of some file which is crashing (and send me both the output and .i file generated by that command) if you still see problems with the latest gcc package in rawhide.
