Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi, Iam trying to build a CROSS-GCC compiller for powerpc-motorola-eabi and I am getting "C compiler cannot create executables"; Hardware & software Workstation : SUNSparc Operating system : Solaris8 (SUNOS 5.8) Latest GCC built with Native SUNWorshop compiler 5.0 : gcc-2.95.2 I have the latest binutils and i have generated Cross compilation tools such as powerpc-motorola-eabi-as, ld, etc... I did the make distclean and configure the latest gcc as follows for cross compilation ./configure --target=powerpc-motorola-eabi and cd gcc directory and Config.log file shows the bottom ettot: configure:6044: checking for strerror in -lcposix configure:6063: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 conftest.c -lcposix 1>&5 ld: fatal: library -lcposix: not found ld: fatal: File processing errors. No output written to conftest and later i issued a "make" and the build went for long time and later responded with "C compiler cannot create executables" and Iam confused. If any one have idea please help me out in identifying to do better Cross compilation Regards Ramesh V. -- Want to unsubscribe from this list? Check out: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
