Hi all,

I'd appreciate your help on this problem. I am compiling 2.6.0 linux
kernel on a Fedora system (Intel, dual 2x750 MHz Pentium III, 1 Gig
RAM, gcc 3.2.3 or gcc 2.9.6); I previously updated my system to match
the requirements for linux-2.6 kernels and did a 'make xconfig'.

[root@zeus linux-2.6]# make bzImage

Thanks in advance for any help.
