Jesse, could you describe your approach a little > more? I assume you link the kernel with "ld -r" and have an elilo > that applies the relocations? Elilo 3.1 supports relocation, but now that I look, we're not passing -r to ld when the kernel is linked, which makes me wonder why it works at all. But I've confirmed that a kernel stripped with --strip-all doesn't boot, while the same binary stripped with --strip-debug does (haven't tried --strip-unneeded, but that should work too). I can look into it more if you're not comfortable with the change, and maybe Tony has something to add? Thanks, JesseReceived on Wed Oct 23 13:49:44 2002
