Actually, you'll probably need to start off by setting up the x86-mips cross compilers on an x86 linux machine of yours and booting the kernel via tftp over the network to get started. I think most of this is covered in the FAQ on the site. Anyway, I don't think it's _ever_ been supported to compile up the kernel in IRIX anyway, so your kind of out of luck for that. On a side note, you probably want to stop by freeware.sgi.com and upgrade your gcc from 2.7 to the latest (2.95.3 I think). Might even try downloading some pre3.0 stuff and try that out. Back to topic: Read EVERYTHING you can on the linux-mips sgi site before asking a question here; if you don't, that's a very good way to get kindly (and a lot of times unkindly) pointed to the FAQ. Hope this helps. --=20 Matthew Fredrickson AIM MatthewFredricks ICQ 13923212 matt@NOSPAMfredricknet.net=20 http://www.fredricknet.net/~matt/ "Everything is relative" --SUOF0GtieIMvvwua Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE6y5QrHzCekITFKgsRAv8dAJ48BXa3ksHmb8khceS0s5jj4Tm4mQCfQ1KR eKluaXCQYgFgqvZfvTzJ394= =//D2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --SUOF0GtieIMvvwua--
