i tried to compile the 2.4.2 kernel at the installfest
and i got compiler errors, i thought it was my machine
that had problems so i tried to compile on a diferent
machine and i got exactly the same error, i have
attached the error message and i one of you would be
kind enough to take a look at it i would very much
appreciate it...
