Hello! Based on your assertions, Marc, is it safe to assume that the combinations for my distribution, at that point in time are not a good fit:(next paragraph) root@jimkirk:/# as --version GNU assembler 2.15.92.0.2 20040927 Copyright 2002 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

They have since created and launched the 12.1 release, but I am reluctant to create the CDs for it, and install it.

I am very very happy to say that I upgraded to Fedora 9 (binutile 2.18) and things seem to be much much better. I was able to compile tinit just fine.
I found a similar problem to the .rom/.ram can't allocate error message in a thread for binutils. Seems this was a problem in 2.17 and has been fixed.
I will try all of the other combos but it looks promising.
A note needs to be made to stay away from binutils 2.17.
