Linker errors with new gnumach-oskit

2002-06-15 Thread Andrew M. Miklic
Hi, I'm working on a port of gnumach-oskit to alpha, and I'm trying to build a gnumach-oskit kernel (downloaded from CVS yesterday), but I'm getting a linker error on the last two steps of the build (the final two links), and I was wondering if anyone had seen this or had any ideas about

libc error during "make install"

2002-06-10 Thread Andrew M. Miklic
I'm trying to cross-compile libc, and the build itself works, but the install fails in the "manual" directory (something about a missing or broken link with libc.texi). I was getting this error from cvs a week or two ago, and I deleted my local tree and re-got an entirely new tree yesterday, b

Cross-compiling for GNU/Mach?

2002-05-19 Thread Andrew M. Miklic
Hi, With much help from Roland McGrath, I have a (mostly) complete set of cross-compiler tools (host=alpha-linux, build=alpha-linux, target=alpha-gnu) in place, but I am having problems getting gnumach-oskit to compile. I tried the following: cd gnumach-oskit

Cross-compiler for HURD/Alpha?

2002-04-18 Thread Andrew M. Miklic
I have tried to follow the instructions for building a cross-compiler from the HURD homepage, but I tried to download the lastest (3.0.4) instead of 2.95.2, and I can find no reference anywhere (in the config* files, either in the 2.95.2 or the 3.0.4 gcc source) to building the HURD as a target ($

GNU Mach-OSKit build failure?!?

2002-04-06 Thread Andrew M. Miklic
Has anyone been able to build the GNU Mach-OSKit kernel since about 2pm MST yesterday? Trying to do a "make all" I am getting the following failure: make: *** No rule to make target `kernel'. Stop. I checked gnumach/Makefile and gnumach/Makefile.in, but neither list a target for "kernel" (

Building GNU Mach with OSKit

2002-04-06 Thread Andrew M. Miklic
All, I'm trying to figure-out exactly how to build the oskit-branch version of GNU Mach with OSKit, but I'm not quite sure how the two are supposed to fit together (I've got OSKit building, but now what do I do so that GNU Mach can finish compiling?) I was referred to www.etherhogz.org,

GNU Mach on Alpha

2002-04-04 Thread Andrew M. Miklic
All, I have completed a very initial (it compiles but does not yet boot) port of GNU Mach to the Alpha processor--would anyone be willing to review and submit this patch? This patch does not affect any x86 files or directories--it merely adds the necessary Alpha-specific directories (and
