   7 This is the procedure for installing the a29k cross compiler on a
   8 sun4.

  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.
