I have successfully downloaded and installed the binaries
for djgpp v2.02. I have also downloaded the sources and
successfully rebuilt gcc-2.95 from the sources using this
installation (just to prove the re-build worked correctly).
I used the instructions in my
C:\djgpp\gnu\gcc-2.95\readme.DJGPP to accomplish this.

The only problem I had was with the final phase -- creating
the archives.  I don't have INFO-ZIP.  I have been unable to

locate a copy.  It doesn't seem to be in the tree on
Simtel.Net.  Where can I find it?

More importantly, now I need to generate an x86/DOS-hosted
cross-compiler/assembler/linker for ARM targets.  My
understanding is that GNU supports ARM targets.  The \arm
source directory "looks" complete.  Unfortunately the
documentation on how to actually do this is rather sketchy.
What changes are necessary to build the
cross-compiler/assembler/linker?  I assume I need to specify

the appropriate target in my
C:\djgpp\gnu\gcc-2.95\build.djg\djconfig.sh and
djbuild1.sh.  What is the appropriate value for the
"--target=" parameter?  Are there other changes that are
required?  Does this just generate the compiler?  If so, how

do I generate the ARM assembler/linker?

Thanks and regards,

Carl Swanson
