Anything above -O -pipe is not offically supported. While you didn't give your optimization level, it's probably -O2 or so, and that has burned people in the past who built their kernels as such. So the offical answer is no, you can't do that. But the unoffical answer is if it works for you, count your blessings and continue. But when something breaks, before you complain with a problem, go back and compile your kernel with no more than -O -pipe. -- Dan Papasian (bugg@bugg.strangled.net) "How are we to distinguish the difference between reality and dream?
