Hello all, I successfully upgraded from 1.1 to 1.3d using hte postings to this group obtained frfom a variety of archive sites. This was accomplished using the original 1.1 cc et al set and the split I&D asld binary posted to the net and required minor changes to ../kernel/console.c and ../commands/cc.c to complete. In preparation for moving to Bruce Evan's protected mode kernel, I obtained the complete 1.2 cc binary set from a friend. Now, when I compile even simple things, I get unresolved references, most notable .cret, .dsret, and .sret. If I switch to the 1.1 version of cg, using 1.2 for cem, cpp, opt, cc, and asld this doesn't happen. My libc.a is ordered according to AST's posted listing. I have also reordered using lorder and tsort plus adding the library modules not found in the distribution libc.a, all to no avail. Does anyone have any idea of what is happening with the 1.2 cg? I don't think it is safe to use mixed parts of the compiler this way and I do want to move up to 1.4b which AST has promised is soon to be posted. Thanks in advance, Mike Dobson dobson@usuhsb.ucc.usuhs.nnmc.navy.mil (preferred) or dobson@usuhsb.bitnet and coming soon to a node near you: dobson@nmrdc.nnmc.navy.mil

In my last posting, I complained about unresolved references when I switched
to using the 1.2 cc binaries. Even before I saw my posting, I received a
reply!! Robert Hall (hall@cod.nosc.mil) pointed out that some of the assembly
modules in libc.a were also changed to support the 1.2 cc binaries. These
changes were not part of the posted upgrades on the path 1.1->1.2->1.3a,b,c,d
Fortunately, bugs.nosc.mil has the distribution 1.3 libc.a available for
anonymous ftp in pub/Minix/bin/1.3libc.a I scarfed the file and it solved my
problems. Many thanks to Robert for the tips.
May all your references be resolved,
Mike
