--==_Exmh_410400216P Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Hi fellow -hackers-- I need to make an executable to run on an i386 box running FreeBSD 2.2.X machine. Unfortunately, it has no compiler installed on it. All of the computers I have at my disposal currently are i386s running 4-STABLE or 5-CURRENT. Upgrading the target machine is not an option. Is it even possible to try doing a "cross-compile" to such an old version of FreeBSD? (I'm primarily thinking of a.out vs. ELF issues...a quick experiment already informed me that I'm lacking an appropriate crt0.o.) Or am I better off trying somehow to build up a 2.2.X machine to do development on? Thanks for any insights... Bruce. --==_Exmh_410400216P Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (FreeBSD) Comment: Exmh version 2.3.1+ 05/14/2001 iD8DBQE7TMGA2MoxcVugUsMRAqzOAJ9S1o1wE9ZkNOGf0d2+Lzv7QndEnwCdH/NW nBG6U6zawgyv7Y0lAfWwTjo= =FofO -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --==_Exmh_410400216P-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
