I've been slowly getting to a point to do this. My rough plan was as follows: 1) Refresh my memory on why I thought Sun 'ld' wasn't usable in the binutils toolchain or throw that notion right out 2) Get GCC 3.4.3 and binutils-??? from gnu.org archives. Does the specific revision matter as much? I know GCC 4.x brings in c++0x which should probably be avoided. 3) Get Sun ld + Gnu as cross assembling together (binutils). Obviously associated tools to verify elf outputs. 4) Get Gnu cc cross compiling 5) (nice to have) document everything and capture what lacks in Gnu ld -- ------------------------------------------------------ Born to the false world, the wanderer, Storyteller, The Pied Piper On a quest for immortality Gathering a troop to find the fantasy -- Nightwish -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
