I'm trying to port/compile XFree86 4.0.1, and I hate working w/o
x-terms. :-) Also I prefer to work w/ partitions over 1 gig when dealing
w/ larger compiles like X + gnome.

What is make-cross?

It caused glibc compilation (for cross-compilation) to bomb out
reporting an undefined reference to __global_ctors or something like
that. Actually I'm still getting this problem (when I use the cross
compiler, after moving down in binutils I was able to compile them) and
would *really* appreciate
Per advice I noted that was indeed using binutils-2.10 and dropped back
to binutils-2.9.1. I realize that this is different from the recommended
binutils-2.9.5, but I'm not sure where to get that. glibc did finally
compile w/o complaining about __libc_global_ctors being undefined.
However when I tr
Get a new GRUB (the most recent floppy image from the GRUB area of
alpha.gnu.org will work, or you can compile an even more recent
yourself).
We should probably delete the faulty GRUB image from the HURD
directory and replace it with the new floppy image, now that I think of
it. Its a question so
I have finally tired of compiling large programs (e.g. X-Windows) on
HURD due to performance issues (e.g. no UDMA, etc), so have bit the
bullet and moved to cross-compilation. However I am having issues
getting glibc to compile. I am roughly following the steps at

There aren't nearly as good user interfaces to the above as
bugzilla...But anyway.

A release, even a "snapshot release" also needs a checklist, it probably
wouldn't be a terrible idea to start one now. I see two entries below,
and would like to humbly add a stable, recent version of XFree86 and
