AW: [ECOS] Building tools with win 95/98

[Jorg Rapka <joerg dot rapka at duagon dot com>]

Hello

I have build the GNU tools under Windows98 successfully (target m68k-elf).
I used the PowerPC documentation from the ecos homepage and replaced target
setting "powerpc-eabi" by "m68k-elf" -> the process was straightforward.
The only problem was during installation of cygwin (use textmode mounts
instead of binary mounts).
Now I'm using Windows2000. I rebuild the tools another time without
problems.
The reason for the switch from Windows98 to Windows2000 was the eCos
Configuration Tool (it was not possible to save a modified configuration).

Best regards, Joerg

Betreff: [ECOS] Building tools with win 95/98


I just want to find out if anyone has built the tools (gcc, gdb, etc.)
under Windows 95/98 successfully. This used to fail, but that was several
iterations of cygwin ago.

I have heard people say that they've done it, in which case I'd be
interested to check whether it was straightforward? (or as straightforward
as building for NT anyway :-)).
