Anyone have a clue ? > You aren't missing the 'cr' command (if it exists), make can't find 'ar'! The output from make should have looked like ... ar cr libbuiltins.a (bunch of '.o' files) Where is 'ar' on your system? If it is in a strange place, you might need to do something like ... # make AR="/why/would/anyone/put/ar/in/this/directory" or edit the Makefile in the subdirectories to point to your 'ar'. Note: If you are building compiling as root, your PATH may not include where 'ar' is installed. I'm guessing you can be doing this because your prompt is '#'. -- ############################### # Art Haas # (713) 689-2417 ###############################
