Re: Producing assembly language listing of kernel

Actually, I am only interested in just a couple of very small sections,
but I need to see how they are being built, when the kernel is assembled.

I wwas going to use a search facility to jump to the section that I am
examining.

Would it be easier to produce a listing for a specific section?
