Re: Need Help on Building GNAT Cross Compiler

Could anyone please tell me how to build a GNAT Cross Compiler from host i686-linux-pc to a powerpc-eabi? I'm running Redhat 9.0. I successfully built a gcc cross compiler (host=i686-linux-pc, target=powerpc-eabi) using:
binutils-2.11.2.tar.gz gcc-2.95.3.tar.gz
newlib-1.9.0.tar.gz
build-crossgcc.sh (from Bill Gatliff's website) ...

And powerpc-eabi will not support features like tasking or filesystem. You may want to look at using
GNAT with RTEMS. With RTEMS, you get full tasking and optional filesystem support.
There are binaries for gcc 3.x based gnat at ftp.oarcorp.com.

That's a good point. Pee, are you sure you want to run Ada on a system with no operating system, as implied by your target name (powerpc-eabi)?

(Incidentally, I just now discovered the definition of powerpc-eabi;
it's IBM's "powerpc Embedded ABI".
