i try 0.9.12 just now on my gentoo box, no problem at all.
u problem is because ld will use the library "libc.a", which will come from the standard search directories.
should in /usr/lib/libc.a. so check if u lib is ok.
anyother try, if u only meet problem here. u can try to modify that Makefile it generated, carefully remove all about insmod_static or insmod.static. then try again
basically, what u do is to ignore the insmod.static since most of the time we do not use it.
用的是2.5.69,config文件是你贴出来的,改了CPU类型,增加broadcom 1000M网卡模块和ATI raden驱动。机器是DELL Latitud D600, Pentium M 1.4G。每次都是启动到login提示就没反应了。键盘死掉,要长按电源键才可以关机。奇怪的是从此我的2.4.20启动可以用ACPI了,只是KDE里电池检测一点都不准。
compile new kernel does not have any impact one other one. maybe u mess them up?
ls -l /usr/src and post here.
latitud , a cute one. hehe. if come to keyboard and die, i wonder if it is u kbd problem. is there any other error reported before come to login?
