Not really useful (could be ln -s /usr/sparc-linux . ?) In effect, ld on sparc32 arch tries to create sparc32 binaries, not sparc64 ones unless "-m elf64_sparc" is provided on the command line. The makefiles in linux kernel sources tree don't call ld like above but just sparc64-linux-ld. Therefore I have had to replace the link with a script to put the -m argument in front of the command line. I could say this a bug because sparc64-linux-ld should always create sparc64 binaries, not sparc32 ones by default, unless -m elf32_sparc is provided on the command line. I don't know however where to fix it: no package provide sparc64-linux-xxx alternatives yet (good candidate could be egcs64). Regards. PS: I forgot nm -> sparc64-linux-nm in the list above. -- Eric Delaunay | "La guerre justifie l'existence des militaires. [EMAIL PROTECTED] | En les supprimant." Henri Jeanson (1900-1970)
