to kind of bring back an older thread, i was talking to Paul (of superh fame) earlier today and i couldnt understand how he wasnt having trouble with bootstrapping a sh toolchain with gcc-3.4.3 like i was turns out it's because he's always used crosstool while i'm doing it by hand :) so i spent a few minutes reading crosstool.sh to figure out what was going on and i think i know now why Dan and i were having such issues communicating in the kernel-requires-gcc-but-gcc-requires-kernel thread ... crosstool works around the fact that gcc's --without-headers is somewhat broken in gcc-3+ while i try to fix gcc to work with that feature ... so crosstool does: setup kernel headers (using sanitized versions) setup binutils setup a bunch of basic glibc headers setup gcc, glibc, etc... while i do: setup binutils patch gcc to work with the --without-headers setup gcc setup kernel headers (using the kernel source) setup glibc, etc... hope that clears up some things ;) -mike ------ Want more information?
