That would probably be fine. What version is the native compiler, assembler and linker? I'll assume it is ELF. cc -v ld -v file /usr/bin/vi will answer these questions. > I guess i'll need to setup a cross compiler, what version is > recommended? The native compiler will be fine. CVS checkout a FreeBSD 5-current src/sys somewhere. You can then cd src/sys/sparc64/conf, create a mini kernel config, config it (you'll have to build the FreeBSD config(8) somehow), and compile it. > Also is the loader ready to boot off the ufs partition yet ?

Maybe someone will give you a pointer to it. -- -- David (obrien@NUXI.com) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-sparc" in the body of the message
