| 3 | GNU Development Tools | |
| 4 | A Cygnus Support Release | |
| 5 | ||
| 6 | ||
| 7 | This is the procedure for installing the a29k cross compiler on a | |
| 8 | sun4. | |
| 9 | ||
| 10 | ||
| 11 | 0. Load the tape. | |
| 12 | ||
| 13 | If you haven't already done so, load the tape with: | |
| 14 | ||
| 15 | tar xvf /dev/rst8 | |
| 16 | ||
| 17 | It doesn't really matter where, so long as the hard disk space | |
| 18 | is available. The source for the tools will be loaded into | |
| 19 | ./devo. | |
| 20 | ||
| 21 | The installed portion of the tools will take about 4 Mbytes of | |
| 22 | disk space. Simply loading the source from tape will require | |
| 23 | about 32 Mbytes. Loading the source from tape, building, and | |
| 24 | installing the tools will need about 46 Mbytes. | |
| 25 | ||
| 26 | Once loaded: | |
| 27 | ||
| 28 | cd devo | |
| 29 | ||
| 30 | 1. Create destdir. | |
| 31 | ||
| 32 | The default location for all installed files and programs is | |
| 33 | /usr/local. We refer to this directory as $(destdir). You | |
| 34 | can change $(destdir) only at configuration time. This is | |
| 35 | because some tools have hard coded pathnames. | |
| 36 | ||
| 37 | If you change destdir after the tools are built, you will need | |
| 38 | to "make clean" and then rebuild. If you don't understand | |
| 39 | this, you should probably be using the defaults for now. | |
| 40 | ||
| 41 | User visible programs are installed in $(destdir)/bin. All | |
| 42 | other files and programs are installed in $(destdir)/lib/gcc. | |
| 43 | ||
| 44 | If $(destdir) does not already exist, create it now. | |
| 45 | ||
| 46 | 2. Configure the source. | |
| 47 | ||
| 48 | If you use the default $(destdir): | |
| 49 | ||
| 50 | configure +host=sun4 a29k | |
| 51 | ||
| 52 | Otherwise: | |
| 53 | ||
| 54 | configure +host=sun4 a29k +destdir=yourdestdir | |
| 55 | ||
| 56 | where "yourdestdir" should be the name of the $(destdir) that | |
| 57 | you've chosen. | |
| 58 | ||
| 59 | 3. Build and install the tools. | |
| 60 | ||
| 61 | Use: | |
| 62 | make install | |
| 63 | ||
| 64 | This will take about 20 minutes on an otherwise unloaded | |
| 65 | SparcStation 2 with a quick, sync, SCSI hard disk. | |
| 66 | ||
| 67 | That's it. You're done. If you don't plan to hack these sources in | |
| 68 | the near future, you'll probably want to also: | |
| 69 | ||
| 70 | 4. Remove intermediate object files. | |
| 71 | ||
| 72 | make clean | |
| 73 | ||
| 74 | and perhaps even: | |
| 75 | ||
| 76 | cd .. ; rm -rf devo | |
| 77 | ||
| 78 | ||
| 79 | To use these tools, you will probably want to add $(destdir)/bin to | |
| 80 | your path. The tools are named with the standard UNIX(tm) names with | |
| 81 | "-a29k" appended so as to avoid conflict with native development | |
| 82 | tools. That is, nm-a29k, etc. | |
| 83 | ||
| 84 | For more information on usage, please refer to {LOTS OF VERY PRETTY | |
| 85 | HARD COPY} (sic) that you should have received with your tape. |
