<div>I'm in the process of trying to go from the 2.6.x kernel to 2.4.x, everything works wonderfuly until I try make zImage, everything I've looked at and found online indicates that I need to roll back to an older version of gcc (2.95.3) to properly compile the kernel. I hate to keep tossing noob questions to the group, but I've downloaded and unpacked gcc-2.95.3, read it's install files, beaten google bloody looking for examples, and I simply can't get my head around how to set the options.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>In short if anyone has any experience with manual installs of gcc, even if it's just documentation (other than GNU's lack thereof) I'll be eternaly grateful. I'm running Debian on a x86 cpu and simply cannot grasp how to set the --target and --host options of ./configure, once that runs succesfuly I should be in the clear.</div>
