I am not trying to build a cross compiler, I am not trying to build GCC.
My course at university uses its own compiler called uC++ (Micro C++).
The compiler thus far only has the following targets that work:
dmake sun-sparc-sunos
dmake sun-sparc-svr4
dmake sun-m68k-sunos
dmake dec-ultrix-mips
dmake dec-alpha
dmake sgi-mips-r4000
dmake sgi-mips-r3000
dmake ibm-rs6000
dmake hp-hppa
dmake pc-i386-linux
dmake gizmo
By my knowledge rs6000 is a RISC based architecture, thus I tried to build
uC++ using the target ibm-rs6000. This resulted in an unrecognized opcode
movl during compilation.
If someone knows what the similar instruction on my G4 is, and any other
problems I might/will encounter, I would appreciate it.
Thank You
