Patching gcc also requires a lot of tmp disk, and Solaris patch cannot specify TMPDIR like Gnu patch can. >2) When I cross compile, I get a message back that the gnu-ld doesn't > like the -lc switch.

If you couldn't install newlib, that is probably the reason. >3) I am having trouble getting a good version of newlib. Anyone know of > a site that works? I used newlib-1.7.0-posix-rtems-3.6.0.tgz from lancelot.gcs.redstone.army.mil:/pub/rtems/releases/3.6.0/c I'm not sure how (if) it differs from the one at Cygnus. >If anyone has been successful in doing an m68k cross on a Solaris 2.5 >Sparc platform, I would like to hear from you. Also, has anyone done >cross debugging with this setup? I'm building a cross Gnat compiler on the same platform and target. No debugging though. ______________________________________________________________________ Lars Bjornfot E-mail: bjornfot@antares.enst-bretagne.fr Telecom-Bretagne Phone: +33 2 9831 4807 (home) Dep.
