I went to a book store today and was looking at the Oh!, Really? book on "Programming with GNU Tools". There was a table in it about all the different "supported" (ie. supported by Cygnus Solutions--DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK, it's a big dumb ad for Cygnus and didn't seem to contian anything resembling useful information--unless, of course, you consider Cygnus phone number useful...) cross-compiler settings. Oddly enough, i386 was not listed as one of the supported "host" machines; it was only listed as a target. Something tells me we may need to try and contact some of the alpha-port people and enlist their help... sw On Fri, 31 Mar 2000, Lyndon Griffin wrote: > This is where I seem to bomb out, as well.
