Trevor, Thanks for your input. I initially built .26, but that failed so I tried .25, which failed as well with the same output. I understand that 7.x is not supported any longer, however I am looking at building my own packages, not getting RPMS from the SuSE gods. I am migrating all of my systems to 9.1 Pro, however 9.1 is backordered from SuSE themselves. In regards to security, I have egg on my face as I posted to the wrong list... Thanks :-) ============================================ Drew J.

Como Subject: RE: [suse-security] Kernel building problem on SuSE 7.x a) Looks like a problem with your level of the program `as` installed. `as --version` might tell you something. b) your source directory is referenced as /usr/src/linux-2.4.25 not .26 c) I don't think any version 7 of SuSE Linux is in support any more d) this is security related how exactly? -----Original Message----- From: Drew J.
