How about: GCCFLAGS += -mcpu=vr4100 -Wa,--trap then? Ralf, it seems the "-mcpu=XXXX -mipsN" settings are contradicting and XXXX is ignored (I don't see it as my gcc translates "-mcpu=XXXX" into "-march=XXXX -mtune=XXXX" as a step towards transiting to 3.x). I think the following settings would be more reasonable: GCCFLAGS += -mabi=32 -mcpu=XXXX # for the 32-bit kernel GCCFLAGS += -mabi=n64 -mcpu=XXXX # for the 64-bit kernel (additional processor-specific flags skipped). Is that supported by the oldest version of binutils you want to support? -- + Maciej W.
