You can use this to cross compile from a VAX or SUN etc. A few months ago I tried to install the Minix C compiler on a Sun-4. I was able to compile the compiler (after a few minor changes), but it refused to do anything sensible. Are there any known problems with the MinixCC/Sun4-combination? Any bugs that depend on word length or byte order of the CPU? --- Tapani Lindgren | Email or Helsinki University of Technology | or Laboratory of Information Processing Science | --- Tapani Lindgren | Email or Helsinki University of Technology | or Laboratory of Information Processing Science |
