Currently, there is not a prc-tools-2.0 package on the 4.3 CDs, or the FreeBSD ftp site. This is the case for both 4.3 and current. The reason that the package is missing is that the makefile relies on a url pointing to www.palmos.com... This url is no longer usable and should be updated to www.sourceforge.org. Anyway, I cannot build the binutils and gcc from source, however, I have managed to get the crt0.o and related files built so I'm now passed that problem. I still have some problems, here is hopefully the last: pgn> make m68k-palmos-gcc -I. -O2 hello.o -o hello hello.o(.text+0x4c):hello.c: undefined reference to `FrmGetObjectPrt' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status gmake: *** [hello] Error 1 Can't see what I'm doing wrong yet, but I'll figure it out. -- phil To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
