[NTLUG:Discuss] cross-compile to vxworks (m68k) from linux (solved)

[Seth Daniel]

I finally got it to work. :o)  

Thanks to Mark C., Greg E., and Deja News I have successfully
compiled, loaded, and run ``hello world'' on this vxworks/m68k 
device.  Needless to say I am ecstatic. 

I had to do some tweaking of the gcc configure process to get
it to work w/o *any* Wind River  (http://www.windriver.com) 
libraries, but it works!  

If anyone is interested I can let them know exactly what had
to be done to do this.  

Thanks for all the help!

I'm beginning to suspect that my target is wrong.  I have a few
pre-compiled binaries that work fine under vxworks, but if I 
run a ``m68k-elf-nm'' on one of these binaries it complains
that it doesn't recognize the format.  I wonder if there are more
m68k targets for gcc than m68k-coff and m68k-elf??
