I've gone and compiled GCC 3.3.1 to be a cross-compiler for PPC. I can compile simple programs with my cross-compiler, take it to the PPC target and have it work. I am now trying to take it to the next step and compile the kernel. When I tried to do the "depends" I got the following.
-----------
scripts/mkdep -- init/*.c > .depend
scripts/mkdep -- `find /cygdrive/d/Tools/linux-2.4.20/include/asm /cygdrive/d/To
ols/linux-2.4.20/include/linux /cygdrive/d/Tools/linux-2.4.20/include/scsi /cygd
rive/d/Tools/linux-2.4.20/include/net /cygdrive/d/Tools/linux-2.4.20/include/mat
h-emu \( -name SCCS -o -name .svn \) -prune -o -follow -name \*.h ! -name modver
sions.h -print` > .hdepend
make: *** [dep-files] Error 255
-----------
Basically it's finding all the *.h files and doing the dependencies, I tried this command with the regular shell and this yields about 927 .H files or so.
I searched this list and found that others have had problems either with pipes/redirection or really long command line parameters. But the things that did work for others didn't work for me.
I'm running the latest Cygwin with DLL version 1.5.5-1. Any and all ideas appreciated.
