Doing a 'make world' always results in sig 11 errors or strange gcc errors. Changing memory access from 60ns to 70ns resolves all the problems. I will have my Siemens simm modules tested on a Tomcat Tyan I of a friend of mine, and I will try to do a make world using his simm modules to determine if it is a memory problem or a motherboard problem. -- Guido Kollerie
