dafj@vax87.auc.dk (FLEMMING H. JENSEN) (07/24/89)

Please help me you Gurues in Netland.

I tryed to compile GB, but got the message:

"dosector.c"; line 230: compiler error: expression causes compiler loop; try sig
***  Error code 1


What do I do now????

I don't know C and I'm not very good at Unix.

Thanx in advance

Me too! Me too!

I would like to add, however, that I ran my make with the -i modifier
(ignore errors) and recieved the following additional errors:

1. "doship.c", line 61: compiler error: illegal register pair freed

2. "load.c", line 336: compiler error: expression causes compiler loop:
    try simplifying

3. "scrap.c", line 134: compiler error: no table entry for op REG

4. "makeplanet.c", line 269: compiler error: illegal register pair freed


I am willing to try any and all fixes.

Thanks much.

Mike

Hello, I'm new to this so please bear with me...


I have the source to GB but my machine is running SYS/V.  The code is of course
written for BSD.  Where can I get information about converting BSD to SYS/V?
