I am a newbie dual booting Windows & Linux (from Knoppix) & trying
to upgrade my kernel from 2.4.22-xfs to 2.4.25 or 2.6.3 but the new
kernel won't compile. It seems to work OK for awhile but then it ends
with an error. I have tried many times & I get slightly different errors
each time (usually "internal compiler error: Segmentation fault"). It
did work once but the kernel wouldn't boot (framebuffer console, VESA
& VGA16 options were not enabled). This is how 2 recent attempts ended:

I tried downgrading gcc from 3.3.3 to 2.95-4 but that didn't work either.
I couldn't find a package for 2.95-3 & I couldn't compile the 2.95-3
source. I was able to compile 2.6.3 using the Knoppix live CD but it
took an extremely long time & now I don't have sound, mouse scroll wheel
or usb support so I have to do it over again. Is there anything I can
do about this?
