68xxx cross compiler on SUN SPARC SOLARIS 2.5

["Claudio Caravaggi" <clacarav at tin dot it>]

Hi,
I still have questions building a cross compiler for a 68k target ( --target=m68k-coff ) on a SUN
Solaris 2.5 with GCC compiler.

 

Mr Oliva answers to me :" I believe you need newlib to build m68k-coff."

 

Ok, but in the FAQ-4 " 4.How to configure , build, and install GCC as a cross-compiler "
newlib is built and installed AFTER building GCC cross compiler !!?? .

 

Do I must use newlib in defining the option "--with-headers=..." that MUST be specified in building
a cross-compiler?( option --with-newlib simply remove the function __eprintf from libgcc.a)

 

If my target is a proprietary board with a 68332 processor ( not a machine like SUN ) is it correct
to configure the cross compiler with --target=m68k-coff ? If not where I can find the latest list of target supported ?

 

Best regards
