Hi Doug. Over the weekend I pulled your 5.0.19 release from your 2.0.34 directory, and replaced the existing RH 5.1 files with your files. During the initial "make boot" and "make modules" I received internal GCC errors. I restarted the make in each case and the make continued to normal end. This I believe to be errors in the original 5.0.13 code in the RH source (since I hadnt install your new code yet, rather just building it.) Once I had a new kernel running with your 5.0.19 code, I did 4 more "make boot" runs WITHOUT an error. I think you have a winner there. Many thanks, and keep up the good work...
