To explain this a bit more: FreeBSD 9.x and later have binutils 2.17.50, FreeBSD 8.x has binutils 2.15. The kernels for 9.x and later use a bit of linker script syntax that is not understood by the older ld in 8.x, so you cannot link the 9.x kernel with /usr/bin/ld on 8.x. Therefore, you have to build the newer linker as part of buildworld, or by using the kernel-toolchain target. -Dimitry _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
