I am trying to compile g77-0.5.17 on a system with EB64+ board which
was installed by linux-alpha from BLADE_0.3. I know we have gcc-2.7.0
is in linux as binaries. In order to compile g77, though, source
of gcc-2.7.0 is needed. So it was ftped along with gcc-2.7.0-diffs
from ftp://grocne.enc.org/pub/alpha, and I unpacked them under
/local (the latter file was patched by "patch -p1 -d gcc-2.7.0 <
gcc-2.7.0-diffs" in /local directory). In gcc-2.7.0 directory, I tried
./configure, finding the following messages:
This appears to be a alpha-dec-linux system.
Using `./config/alpha/alpha.c' to output insns.
Using `./config/alpha/alpha.md' as machine description file.
Using `./config/alpha/linux-64.h' as target machine macro file.
Using `./config/alpha/xm-linux.h' as host machine macro file.
Merged alpha/x-linux.
Merged alpha/t-linux.
Merged c++ fragment(s).
Memory fault
Created `./Makefile'.
Merged alpha/x-linux.
Merged alpha/t-linux.
Memory fault
Created `cp/Makefile'.
Links are now set up to build a native compiler for alpha-dec-linux.
Apparently Memory fault leads to failure of creating `./Makefile',
although the message said "Created `./Makefile'" that is empty.
Does anybody tell me how to compile gcc-2.7.0 successfully ?
Then I will be able to go on compiling g77-0.5.17. I tried it in
SparcStation 2 with SunOS4.1.1, finding no problem at all.
Earnestly waiting for response.
