Well, the conversion process from 1.3 to 1.5.9 is proceding nicely. I am now in the process of trying to do a build on the 1.5.0 kernel and I am experiencing some problems doing the build. I have a XT compatible. Nothing special. I am able to compile up the kernel, mm, fs, and tools/* all without any problems now. However, when I run build, it seems to work fine until it starts checking magic numbers for the kernel and mm. When it gets to there, I get a message which says: Build: mm click_shift does not match kernel's and then the build aborts. I don't know what the flip is wrong, so if someone could enlighten me, I would be most greatful. Thanks, -- Brian R. Bainter KA7TXA gatech!kd4nc!trantext!brian or gatech!tomcat!brian

The same thing happened to me, when I was building 1.5.0... The problem with mine was that I forgot to copy the new *.s files from lib/ibm to /usr/lib (head.s in particular). When I recompiled with the new head.s (I thing that was the only *.s file that changed) it worked fine. Tom

I don't know what the flip is wrong, so if My intention was to mail Brian today to tell him what I know, but someone else posted with the same problem. This happened to me when I was installing Bruce Evans' protected mode, and I cured it by updating all the files in [/lib /usr/lib] like head.s and so on. Check this first, and good luck! -- Charles Keith Hewlett-Packard Co. UUCP: {hplabs|ucsd|hpfcla}!hp-sdd!charles 16399 W.
