I just got the patches to upgrade my kernel to version 1.1.12 today.

Installed them, and ran "make dep ; make clean ; make", and when it was
nearly finished, the make bombed out with (reformatted to make it more
readable):

=======errlist======
	net/net.o: Undefined symbol _rarp_ioctl referenced from text segment

	fs/filesystems.a(proc.o): Undefined symbol _rarp_get_info referenced
							  from text segment

	make: *** [tools/zSystem] Error 1
=======errlist======


I'm wondering if I've finally come up to a version of Linux which
requires a later version of gcc and the libraries.


If this is the case, then could someone give me some tips on what to do
to upgrade the compiler?

I've avoided doing it up till now because it seems like a messy job
and I figured it could wait until I got around to installing Slackware
1.2.0, which will be as soon as I get a scsi controller for my system so
I can a) do a tape backup, and b) use my scsi cd-rom drive.

My guess is that I should get a copy of gcc, libraries, binutils etc,
and just follow the instructions in the archives.

What I need to know is:

 - which files do I need to get?

   I have the gcc 2.4.5 and the libraries and binutils etc which came
   with SLS 1.03.  All fairly old stuff.

 - what do i need to be careful of?

   i.e. is it possible for me to install things in the wrong order so
   that, for example, i am unable to run cp or mv or ln to complete the
   install?  I seem to recall this being mentioned at some point in the
   past.
