I need help setting the configure and build options for ntp-4.2.4p3 on my old 486SX running NetBSD-3.1.
I know I've pestered you about a year ago about this old piece of junk, and I even got some offers for free newer hardware. That's beside the point. I'd like to make this work. Right now, I'm stuck running ntpdate from a cron job to sync the clock. And as I've read here so many times, "ntpdate is deprecated". ;-) My goal is to produce the smallest program object to fit in the machine's limited memory, but I've determined that it cannot be compiled using the cc -O2 parameter. I've been told elsewhere, and can confirm, that this level of optimization on a 486SX will attempt to use the FPU's sqrt functions, which I obviously don't have (SX doesn't have an FPU; DX does). Building ntpd with -O2, which seems to be the build's default optimization, makes ntpd croak on my box. Is there a configuration switch that determines the compiler optimization? I don't need any refclocks, this box will poll time from my main server. So I can probably use ./configure --disable-all-clocks --disable-debug as a starting point. Any other tips? I'm a newbie to BSD, cc, linking, makefiles, configuring and building my own software, so please bear with me. I've looked at the help text for ./configure, but I've seen no options that seem to drive the -O parameter for the cc commands the build will be running. Thanks for any help. -- Pierre Dubuc [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ntp.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
