Comment 2 John Hardin 2013-02-10 01:15:01 UTC
You have the "64-bit kernel" option checked in your kernel config but you're using a 32-bit development environment to build the kernel.

If your system is 64-bit hardware, then install a powerpc64 crossdev environment per the Gentoo crossdev docs and compile your kernel using that, for example:

  make ARCH="powerpc" CROSS_COMPILE="powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu-" -j2

You can also set the cross-compiler prefix in the kernel config so that it's automatically used if the option is not provided to make on the command line.

I suspect that some automagic in the ppc64/32bit-userland profile that did this before has rotted. I had the exact same problem and had to manually manage the kernel cross-compile process for the first time.
Comment 3 Tom Wijsman (TomWij) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-04-14 07:45:34 UTC
1. Can you confirm what John said in Comment #2?

2. Does this still happen on later kernels?

3.6.11 is EOL and is likely to drop from the kernel.org homepage when 3.9 enters.
Comment 4 Mike Pagano gentoo-dev 2013-06-18 22:21:02 UTC
Ago, same for this one. Reopen if you still experience this. Thanks.
