The first (confirmed to work) cross-release!
Finally, I've been able to build an i386 snapshot on Alpha,
and make sure it works!
This is the "uname -a" output from the Alpha box which was
used to build the snapshot, root access kindly provided by
Wilko Bulte:
: FreeBSD ds10.wbnet 5.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT #8: Tue Jan 28 07:58:2=
2 CET 2003 root@ds10.wbnet:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC alpha
This is the "uname -v" output from the machine which runs
this snapshot, my i386 development box:
: FreeBSD 5.0-20030203-SNAP #0: Mon Feb 3 17:22:03 GMT 2003 root@ds10.=
wbnet:/usr/obj/i386/usr/src/sys/GENERIC=20
I've alreadu committed a few changes that were necessary to
make this happen. Some are still uncommitted like the patch
for gas(1) by Alexander Kabaev, and fixes to make disklabel(8)
work for a different architecture (working with Poul-Henning
on this one).
There's still one issue to be resolved for "i386 on alpha"
cross-releases: btxld(8) produces a binary image different
from when it's run natively; I will look into this ASAP.
(I had to take the produced by the Alpha box loader.bin
from ${.OBJDIR} and pass it to btxld(8) on an i386 box,
and then back to Alpha, to produce a working loader(8)
(for kern.flp and "base" distribution).
Alexander, please commit your patch for gas(1). It works!
It was very kind of you to develop it, and it was done
incredibly fast. Thanks a lot!
Wilko, I still need an access to your ds10 Alpha for a few
more days.
Cheers,
