I want to install the National NS32xxx gnu system as a cross compiler to a coff based Genix system. I want to have it running on a sun386i. I have gcc v1.33, gas 1.31 the binutils and lots of other gnu stuff -- I'm really not clear how to deal with coff. I made gcc v1.33 on my Opus board running Genix 3.0, but the genix assembler has problems groking the compiler output. Genix didn't like the align 0 directives. I really would like to know what I need to do get a cross compiling gnu system to eventually output a coff file in the targets native format. I suppose gas could write coff modules instead of a.out -- has anyone done this. There something called "coff-encapsulation" which I don't really understand. Pointers to documentation would be appreciated. Any help would be appreciated. marty ARPA: leisner.henr@xerox.com GV: leisner.henr NS: martin leisner:wbst139:xerox UUCP: hplabs!arisia!leisner
