I did that, and then it complained about a bunch of undefined references
to pci bus stuff. I had configured without support for pci bus since it's an
sbus machine I was trying to compile on.

So I went back and enabled support for pci bus even though I didn't have
pci bus.

Then it exploded with the compiler generating something the assembler
couldn't grock on 3c905.c or something to that effect. So I went into the net
devices and turned off everything except the Lance support.

Kernel finally compiled all the way. Tried to boot and it said;

Booting vmlinux...

And that's as far as it got.

I also built 2.3.40 on a Pentium based machine here; had no compile
problems on it, but when I went to boot it did exactly the same thing.

Is a newer silo/lilo required?
