Message-ID: <3708@druwy.ATT.COM> Date: 2 Dec 88 05:50:28 GMT Distribution: comp Organization: AT&T, Denver, CO Lines: 28 I really need someone to help me out. I'm having trouble building (any) program with ST-MINIX. I tried to port ARC 5.12 with no luck (/usr/lib/cv, during the link step, gets a segmentation violation, always at the same place, regardless of what is to be loaded). I suspected that it was my problem, so I tried to build the test programs under /usr/src/test, and guess what? Same problem. I really don't know where to look next (I have the kernel dump, but really don't know where to go from here). On a similar note, would it be possible to post at least a shortened version of the manual page entries for the ACK stuff. It's really difficult to isolate problems like this one without knowing what the flags to ld mean, for instance: ld -o test0 -c -a0:2 -a1:2 -a2:2 -a3:2 .... What are the meanings for the flags here? I tried the UNIX-like ld command line: ld -o test0 crtso.o test0.o libc.a end.o And ld seemed to work fine, but what I got didn't seem to be an executable. Anyway, I'd *really* appreciate any help, especially from those of you who have been able to build (any) program under ST-MINIX. Myron Drapal att!druhi!druwy!med
