That's right. But I thought better trying out first before writing an
email.

No, this ld is too old to handle elf32-tradbigmips.
You'll need a more up to date toolchain.

I could slap myself for this: I fetched binutils 2.9.5 instead of 2.13.1
while thinking 9 > 1 and not reading 13. *hmpf* Sorry for this. After
installing binutils-2.13.1 the compile went fine.

vmlinux.ecoff: MIPSEB ECOFF executable (impure) stripped - version 0.200

That's it I suppose :) I'm looking forward to test this kernel ...

Thanks for your help.

Ciao,mic
