Hi Dietmar,

Following your suggestion, I've just upgraded binutils to binutils-2.17.50.0.14-1. I've tried a new build on the fresh xen source tree (without any modifications), but unfortunately the error message is still there:

Do you have any other idea how to solve the problem? Should I upgrade some more packages?

Cheers

Hi Rafal,

There were two suggestions on Xen mailing lists related with this problem:

1. update binutils - in my case there is binutils-2.14.90.0.4-42 so I guess it's rather fresh...

I think the best would be to update binutils. Version 2.14 was released 2003! Current version is 2.17.

2. comment out HAVE_SERIALIZE_DIRECTIVE definition in xen/include/asm-ia64/config.h - it helped in my case!

Now things seem to go a little bit better (with some warnings by the way), but finally it gets stuck again with the following error message:

I didn't tried this out. Maybe uncommenting HAVE_SERIALIZE_DIRECTIVE involves other problem which doesn't attract attention because nobody has tried it the last time.

Dietmar.
