None of them is PPC-specific. All GNU toolchain components support all the targets in the same package. You select your target when you run the configure script. You definitely want GCC and Binutils. Are you going to cross-compile for an embedded PPC system or for some sort of UNIX or GNU/Linux for PPC? If it's an embedded system, you want Newlib. You can also use GDB to debug the embedded target. If it's GNU/Linux, you want GLIBC. (No idea where would debugging fit in this case.) You also want the latest releases of the packages. Binutils 2.9.1 and GDB 4.17 are outdated, use Binutils 2.10 and GDB 5.0 instead. > Anybody can elaborate on this and provide a step-by-step > instruction on installaing gcc-ppc cross-compiler on > Solaris ? When you figure out what you want, figure out what is the configure target name for it and follow the CrossGCC FAQ. -- Michael Sokolov Harhan Engineering Laboratory Public Service Agent International Free Computing Task Force International Engineering and Science Task Force 615 N GOOD LATIMER EXPY STE #4 DALLAS TX 75204-5852 USA Phone: +1-214-824-7693 (Harhan Eng Lab office) E-mail: msokolov@ivan.Harhan.ORG (ARPA TCP/SMTP) (UUCP coming soon) ------ Want more information?
