I changed one object module, rebuilt it (which produced a new std_kern.mod) and tried to relink the generic vmunix. build GENERIC_relink ... rm -f vmunix vmunix.sys loading vmunix.sys /usr/sde/osf1/build/v40supportos.nightly/tools/alpha_OSF1/alpha/acc/ld: GENERIC.mod: branch relocation out-of-range, bad object file produced, can't branch from 0xfffffc000024069c to 0xfffffc00006b032c Relinking GENERIC with trampoline code chmod 755 a.out (null command) mv a.out vmunix.sys ln vmunix.sys vmunix; ln vmunix vmunix.GENERIC Elapsed build time(hr:min:sec): 0:6:58 Do you know what the error message means, and whether I need to worry about it or not? Did I do something wrong? Does everyone get the message I got? Thanks, sergei
