[/lib/modules/2.4.7-10enterprise/build/include] same here, except for one thing, why are you using the enterprise kernel? this is what is causing problems, why don't you get the latest kernels from redhat, 2.4.9-31 is the latest iirc > Extracting the sources of the vmmon module. > > Building the vmmon module. > > /lib/modules/2.4.7-10enterprise/build/include/linux/malloc.h:3: warning: > #warning The Use of linux/malloc.h is deprecated, use linux/slab.h > .././linux/hostif.c:110: #error "64GB memory configuration is not > supported." as you can see here it is complaining about one of the features of the enterprise kernel, your best bet is to use a "normal" kernel from redhat no need to downgrade GCC, a good thing to do if you compile a lot is to have another compiler at hand for situations like this i have gcc 3.0.3 installed as the default and i have 2.95.3(i think...) in /usr/local for better compatability with some applications... -munir
