You probably should use newer versions of binutils and gcc. Also, you will probably need a C library and newlib is the choice for embedded systems. If you need a free real-time operating system, then give RTEMS a look (www.rtems.army.mil and www.oarcorp.com). If you are interested in Ada95, then GNAT/RTEMS is an alternative. If you are doing an embedded system then you probably want to use a target configuration like m68k-coff not m68k-linux. --joel Joel Sherrill Sr. Computer Scientist joel@OARcorp.com On-Line Applications Research Ask me about RTEMS: a free RTOS Huntsville AL 35805 Support Available (205) 722-9985
