Hello. I'm new to this list, so I appologize if this has already been
covered. I'm trying to compile gcc-2.8.0 under NT, and I'm not having much
luck. My ultimate goal is to build a m68k cross-compiler that runs under
NT, but for now I'd be happy just to get the native version working. I've
tried several different ways: including running the configure.bat file
supplied with the gcc-2.8.0 distribution; installing with MKS's ksh; and
of course, using the cygwin32 tools. The problem I have with the latter is
while running the configure script, it says gcc doesn't work:
...
checking for gcc... gcc
checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works... no
configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler cannot
create executables.
bash$
Why is this? Has anyone successfully built a gcc cross-compiler for m68k
on NT? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
