Hi all, I belong to small community around 680x0 Atari computers based on FreeMiNT OS. GCC 2.95 was ported to this OS years ago and now we decided to port gcc 4.2.2. (there were also some unofficial attempts with gcc 3.x and gcc 4.1.x). The most of the work is probably done, one clever guy already did the port, AFAIK even cooperated with binutils and gcc developers so it's maybe known thing to you. I'd like to ask some things since in this area I'm more user than a developer and nobody in atari community seems to be 100% sure about these: - how to "merge" binutils and gcc in bootstrap process? There's just slight note in building howto but I didn't find what exact directories should I link/copy to gcc source tree? There are also some common directories, i.e. "include" or "config", not speaking about configure scripts in the top-level source tree - when I'm doing bootstrap, there's stage1 compiled against installed (for example gcc 2.95) compiler, right? Then there stage2 and stage3 which are compiled against already built compiler. I'd like to ask, what version gets installed in "make install"? Probably that one from stage3 but I'd like to be sure -- I start with gcc 2.95 installed and I'd like to have gcc 4.2.2 (with some optimizations, see below) compiled against gcc 4.2.2 and I don't know if it's necessary to build gcc4 first (let's say with --disable-bootstrap, then install, then recompile gcc4 with make boostrap) - basic m68k-atari-mint-gcc is optimized with -m68000 -O2 flags. When I want to change it and to have installed gcc, which is compiled against let's say '-m68060 -O3', which flags should I change? BOOT_CFLAGS or CFLAGS? (please note I care only about the final binary to be -m68060) If there are some docs about this topic, I'd happy to read them, if not, I'd happy for any hint :) Thanks and regards, Miro Kropacek -- MiKRO / Mystic Bytes http://mikro.atari.org
