Are you using gcc-2.95 or the earlier egcs? What's your host machine? I'm running an Intel Pentium (pre-MMX) and Linux and had to specify the additional parameter: --host=i586-pc-linux Not sure whether BeOS is supported where linux is specified (...)

The trick (then) is to use Markus's (...) (25 years ago, 28-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

I've also been struggling with building the cross compiler. I'm trying to create a DJGPP hosted version. Once I am successful, we will be able to use Markus's legOS on DOS/Windows as-is. Currently, I have to rewrite Makefile.Common, Makefile.Kernel, (...) (25 years ago, 28-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
