Ah - yes - staring me in the face in the end - 7.1.2 on the
master and 6.5.6
on the slaves.
However this does bring me to another point. 6.5.6 refuses
to compile on
the newest box (Ubuntu 6.06) - not sure why - never have
been too hot on
errors from makes. Is this something to do with gcc under
Ubuntu 6.06
being different to the gcc that was in Slackware 7.1 (on
which the 6.5.6
compiles ok)?
So now I have two possible options:
1) Try and make 6.5.6 compile on the new box
or
2) Throw out all the old boxes because they won't compile
7.1.2 (they
refused to compile 6.6.x as I recall because they were too
low on resources
and a quick cross compile failed).
1) seems easiest - or is it too much trouble trying to
compile 6.5.6 on a
very new distro
2) is a hell of a lot of work reghosting 8 machines.
Any advice?
Cheers
Rob
