Team,
I also tried 2.5.70 kernel on the same system, the compiler error is the same (The message is "Unknown Pseudo-op: '.incbin'").
Then I loaded these two kernels on another SuperMicro 2 PIII CPU system. It has RH Linux 9.0 (2.4.20-8) on it. Both kernel compiled OK. However, reboot with new kernel hung system at the point of:
Uncompressing Linux ... Ok, booting the kernel.
System boot won't proceed. This happens to both 2.5.70 and 2.5.71.
The process of build and reboot new kernel is same as what I did for previous few kernel. From 2.5.70 README file, this process doesn't seem to be changed. I wonder someone may know the issue and have solution already.
Any help is appreciated! Thanks!
Eddie

.incbin is not supported by binutils older than:
2.11.90.0.23 released on 2001-07-14
Please update your binutils.
