Hi there,

I've noticed a bug in 2.0.27's README: The README says that
you need gcc 2.6.3 or newer. In fact, 2.0.27 does not compile
with 2.6.3 w/o modifications: It doesn't understand pentium
optimizations (-malign-*=2) and the compilation fails in include/fddidevice.h
on "__attribute__ ((packed))". The most simple fix is attached.

COMPILING the kernel:

- - make sure you have gcc-2.6.3 or newer available. It seems older gcc
+ - make sure you have gcc-2.7.0 or newer available. It seems older gcc
versions can have problems compiling newer versions of linux. If you
upgrade your compiler, remember to get the new binutils package too
(for as/ld/nm and company).
