gcc 3.0.3 didn't work either (I don't feel that's the problem)
2.4.16 did the same thing, except it was in char.o
I tried to link the kernel by removing arch/alpha/kernel/kernel.o and
replacing with the actual files. the error is in arch/alpha/kernel/srm_env.o
I really need something to work as I have a DAC960 controller that I want to
try.

Are you saying that 2.4.17 works but prior doesn't? or were you refering to
binutils.
Please keep the CC to linux-kernel as my spam filter is tagging your mail

Recent binutils warn about symbols marked as discardable but referenced
when the driver is built-in instead of modularized. Older ones just shut up.
Original explanation:

Corrected mainly in 2.4.17-pre6 (and some leftovers in following pres).

OK.
My ISP has reached the spam-black-lists ? I'm beginning to think that
those lists are becoming useless. Everybody is there. Some day someone
will manage to send just ONE message faking vger and the linux kernel

any ideas? gcc-3.0 compiles it but I don't know if that's a good idea or not.

the kernel was compiled with 2.95.4 which is in debian's woody. I also
installed debian's gcc-3.0 package. it does compile dac960.
No, it's an EV4. gcc 2.95.2 did nothing but eat all my memory on this file.
just out of curiosity, I have this dac960 controller with alpha 2.70
firmware. I know it says it needs 2.73, but the latest for alpha is 2.70.
Any ideas if it'll work or not?
If I loose the contents of everything on this sytem, fine, I have another
disk with the system on it so I won't loose anything. =)

Nope , The linux DAC960 driver needs 3.51-0-04 for dual flash .
Or 2.73-0-00 for single flash . And beleive me Leonard means what
he put in the README.DAC960 file .
2.73 usability is new to me as when one of these dropped into my
hands all the driver supported was the Dual 3.51... firmware .
Using either of the above will work on Linux , BUT not alpha
vms/osf/nt .
The cost for the items from Mylex isn't reasonable imo . But if
you want it & have a flash burner , Get two just like on the card
now & download the firmware & burn it . Don't get the XDBA
version as IIRC the alpha boards don't support it . But do check
if MB you have does . Might get lucky .

I just tried it on my alpha (modifying the source to accept 2.70) and it
appears to work. atleast I can make a partition, mke2fs it and put files on
it. I keep getting ecc uncorrectable errors (retryable) frequently. No,
this isn't DAC's fault because it happens even if I don't load the module.
I'm assuming it's either 2.4.17 (I doubt it) or the fact I compiled it with
gcc 3.0.3 gcc 2.95.4 wouldn't compile dac960.c

I think I did. Now if the ecc errors would go away, I'd be happy. The
machine's crashed many times on my already.
Any ideas on compiling the DAC960 module w/o using gcc 3.0
