Can't compile kernel-2.6.15-1.54 with gcc 4.1.0

[mohammadazim]

Hi,

I am trying to compile kernel 2.6.15-1.54 of FC5. in BUILD/2.6.15-1.2054/README it says gcc should be above 3.2.0. I have gcc 4.1.0 but I am getting a lot of warning messages like:
CC [M] fs/xfs/xfs_bmap.o
fs/xfs/xfs_bmap.c: In function ‘xfs_bmap_alloc ’:
fs/xfs/xfs_bmap.c:2326 : warning: ‘rtx’ is used uninitialized in this function

when I do make and it gives error when I do 'make modules'.

I think this kernel I am trying to compile is compiled with some older version gcc.

Can any one suggest me a kernel which will compile well on gcc 4.1.0.


Thx,

Hi want to update you all. Sorry for this late update!

I figured it out by upgrading gcc to 4.1.1-51 version. Since I downloaded latest kernel from net I should upgrade gcc to latest as always latest kernels are compiled on latest gcc before release.
