Well, Dave's advice worked like a charm. Thanks, Dave! It seems like this would be a good thing to add to the HOWTO, although who knows how many other people want to use legOS on LinuxPPC.

Hey, everyone. I was just checking out the lugnet page, and was thinking it might be a good idea to update the LegOS links. Perhaps include a link to SourceForge, and fix the HOWTO link. What do you think? And how does one go about this? ROSCO (24 years ago, 12-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) The problem is due to a bug in gcc 2.95. The assembly version of memcpy fixes the LegOS kernel, but all your user programs are subject to the same bug. Until it's fixed in gcc, you're stuck with egcs. Regards ROSCO (24 years ago, 12-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
