Hello to all Woody and Sparc Fans! I want to understand the porting process so I began with C and systems programming. And I purchased a Sun Ultra5 with Solaris8 preinstalled.
Now I want to get the GNU tools and the Linux Kernel and compile them part for part(on the Solaris-Ultra5) so that lastly I get a Linux-Ultra5. (The reason I ask here is because I want to base my work on the source packages of Woody and after compiling package the software to deb's just to understand how this works). My problem: Where should I begin? What tools or libraries should I compile first? I think the most important tools and libraries are gcc and glibc. But what compile options should I choose to compile from a Solaris to a Linux machine? Can someone give me some hints and tips (or a URL to a document describing this kind of work), please? I thank you for reading my mail I thank you for answering With best regards your debian_noob ________________________________________________________________ Mit der Grupppen-SMS von WEB.DE FreeMail können Sie eine SMS an alle Freunde gleichzeitig schicken: http://freemail.web.de/features/?mc=021179
