I tried Dave Jones' version of the kernel to see if it would compile, as I
haven't been able to the regular 2.5 kernel to compile since I have the
new binutils package.=20

It compiled fine. When I booted up everything looked normal with the
exception of a=20
eth1: going OOM=20
message that kept scrolling down the screen. My eth1 is a natsemi card.

Eventually that stopped and gdm came up. For some reason my keyboard and
mouse wouldn't work.  However, I could ssh into the machine and both
ethernet cards were functional. I noticed I had left SMP support
selected in the configuration, so I turned that off and tried
recompiling. It got to check.c in fs/partitions before stopping with an
error.=20

So, it looks like the binutils problems are fixed, but there are some
other issues apparently. If you need configuration information or for me
try something please let me know.
