- This kernel doesn't work on i386!

  It oopses late in boot due to an unrevertable change (e3c1b141) in git-x86
  which I stared at for a while then I ran out of time and gave up.

  I would have just abandoned this release until it was fixed but I'll be
  largely offline for ten days starting tomorrow.

  The culprits have been notified and hopefully we'll have a patch for
  hot-fixes/ tomorrow.

  x86_64 and powerpc work OK though.

Well it doesn't build on x86-64 for me:

  CHK     include/linux/compile.h
  CC      arch/x86/ia32/../../../fs/compat_binfmt_elf.o
Assembler messages:
Fatal error: can't create arch/x86/ia32/../../../fs/.tmp_compat_binfmt_elf.o: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** [arch/x86/ia32/../../../fs/compat_binfmt_elf.o] Error 2

I will post the .config if anyone is interested.


It's a Kbuild race -- if you keep re-building it will eventually build the right file.

Not excusable, but that's what's going on.
