[comp.sys.att] need help with error message

ec120bdf@sdcc7.ucsd.EDU (Dennis Lou) (02/08/89)

Does anyone have any idea what this error message is?  It occurred
whilst I was trying to compile spacewar (taken from uunet.uu.net) on
a ATT 3b20.  I had to use the ndbm.h library but there is no 
libdbm.a in /usr/lib.  Also, libcurses.a has all the terminal info
so I had to change the -ltermlib reference in the Makefile to
-lcurses.  Anyways, here's the errors that got me puzzled...

ld crt0.o: unknown flag: 6
ld crt0.o: unknown flag: 8
ld crt0.o: unknown flag: 0
ld crt0.o: unknown flag: 2
ld crt0.o: unknown flag: 0
ld crt0.o: unknown flag: 6
ld crt0.o: unknown flag: 8
ld crt0.o: unknown flag: 8
ld crt0.o: unknown flag: 8
ld crt0.o: unknown flag: 1
*** Error code 1

Stop.


Any info will be appreciated.  Thanks.

have you noticed that the flags spell out
		68020
		68881
?  i'll bet the program is trying to tell the compiler that it's for a
MC68k machine with math accelerator chip.
