RE: [cdt-dev] compiling linux kernel 2.6 in eclipse-CDT

["Lott, Jeremiah" <jeremiah.lott@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

We've successfully built the linux kernel in CDT, on machines with less
memory than that.  We actually use a custom project-type in our
CDT-based product, but I think it should also work in a Standard Make
project.  One thing I would definitely recommend is turning off the
indexer, or switching to the Ctags based indexer.
