Lets get this straight.
Binutils must be compiled targetting the target
system, but it runs on the host system. The target can
be seen in sparc-linux-ld -V
gcc must be compiled like so:
../configure --target=sparc-linux --prefix=/usr/local
--disable-threads
And this gives me a missing crti.o
So libgcc needs the targets libc headers. Does it need
the COMPILED libraries?
I added --with-headers ../../glibc-2.3.x/include and
it bombs out with
/usr/local/sparc-linux/sys-include/libio not found.
Someone said the c libraries must be COMPILED, but I
dont have a compiler.
My eventual aim is to use uclibc, a custom kernel and
busybox for sparc. I have a good binutils, and uclibc,
glibc2.3 sources, and a good slackware 10
installation.
What to do next?
And if this is such a chicken and egg problem, how is
the first gcc/library of any platform compiled?
