If you built this kernel yourself, you need to do it from a system with
 an up-to-date binutils (2.18) otherwise, it does this.

 If you got it from somewhere (like a distribution) then please tell us
 where, as there are some other troubles with load-base location for
 Fedora and so on...
Is it hard to put a check into the kernel make system to look for
binutils 2.17 and refuse to build with a nice error message? I poked
around in the makefile but I'm not 100% sure of how it works.

       Hi,

I just tried to boot 2.6.26 on a Pegasos and the kernel does not boot.
The last message I have is:
gunzip (0xffffffff <----- some more hex digits)

The configuration has been created from a working 2.6.25 one with
make oldconfig and answering N to new config options.

Anybody has seen this or do I have to start digging deeper?

       Regards,
       Gabriel
