Re: [PLUG] Kernel 2.4 under RH7


> Just download any tarball from a kernel mirror (or use Darxus' dlkern
utility).  Once you un-tar it, you need to edit the "Makefile" so that
wherever it says "gcc" change it to "kgcc".  This is a RedHat-only thing
since RH decided to ship with an unstable version of gcc.

Does that apply even AFTER you've gotten all the revelent RH 7
patches/bug/security fixes, Tony? By which I mean... if you keep up with the
RH7 patches, do you get a "stable" and usable gcc, and therefore don't
always have to use kgcc to kernel compile with?

If you know, that is.
