If anyone's interested in looking at Markus Noga's legOS, but hasn't
built up the courage to install Linux, I've managed to build some
Win32 hosted GNU tools. It's not actually that much of an
achievement - just cranking the handle on the Cygnus GNU
package - but is useful and does seem to work, though my
"test" was merely a build of the legOS samples...

I've put a binary "patch" on http://www.beesknees.freeserve.co.uk/lego/
which you can add to a download of the Cygwin package (fuller, but
still alas too brief, instructions on that page, along with a guide to
building it yourself).


Oh, Gavin. You have got further than I did after way too many hours downloading
CYGWIN, BINUTILS etc. even installing LINUX didn't get me a good build.

Anyways, I'm in the process of downloading your binaries right now, and
I'll keep the group posted on hosting your bins on WIN98.

I DID find another hitachi site with the GNU toolset on it, but the download
crapped out after 50% at 9.x meg!!!!!

THANK YOU FOR YOUR EFFORTS!!!!

Cheers,
