Hi,

I'm trying to compile the Linux kernel using the gcc toolchain of cygwin.
This time, I'm trying to compile the kernel for the host machine (x86).

I'm using a managed mountpoint (should I mount the mountpoint with the 
--executable or --text options too ?) and I have installed gcc-core, gcc-g++, 
binutils, cpio, make, patch, tar, vim, gettext, libintl and libncurses on cygwin 
using the setup.exe

However, I'm encountering the following problems.

Any help or suggestion is very welcome.

Many thanks in advance,

            Claudio
