Re: help needed: gcc 3.0 mips cross compilor problem


Hi, Lewin,

I have re-installed the binutils 2.11.2 and gcc 3.0 with the advise given,
the compiling stops at the exact place as I did before.  And the message is
the same declaring mips-tfile not found.  Is there other switchs to turn 
on/off
when build cross-compilor for mips?  Thanks.

Regards,
Jason
