I have a "hypotethical" question... Lets say I'm making a new operating system (called somenewos), and want to use GCC to create this new os, and that it will be created by cross- compiling from a Linux host. The parameters to the configure script are: --enable-languages=c,c++ \ --prefix=/some/prefix/toolchain \ --target=i386-somenewos-elf I have used the same parameters to binutils (without the --enable- languages of course) and it worked ok. It also seems to work ok for GCC initially. However, when I try to compile GCC I get some configuration errors when trying to configure i386-somenewos-elf/libiberty. When looking in i386-somenewos-elf/libiberty/config.log, this error is at the bottom: /some/prefix/toolchain/i386-somenewos-elf/bin/ld: cannot open crt0.o: No such file or directory So, my question is: What should I do to get past this? Should I create a crt0.o and in that case what does GCC need it to do, and where should I place it? Am I missing some parameters to the top-level configure script? I'm using binutils-2.14.90.0.6 and GCC 3.3.2, and this "hyptethical" new OS is supposed to be made for a normal consumer PC and not an embeded target. Thanks in advance. / Joachim -- ====================================================================== The Arrow http://www.pileborg.org/~arrow/ Joachim Pileborg Moses @ ptmud.pileborg.org 1111 ======================================================================
