Hello Willy.

Thanks for the prompt reply.

Did that, and also what's below. One difference however, is that there
is no risctimer.c file to create an object file, only the risctimer.h
which is included in some files. I also added the suni.o object to the
list of objects below (the suni.c and suni.h files are included in the
dir). Is that correct?

I was getting reference errors referring to 'debug_print' but they were
originating from the unrelated uart.c file.

I did eventually get it to compile by not using that function and fixing
some other errors on my part.

At the moment, on boot up of the kernel, it says that:

utopia (itf 0): no signal

after a couple of read and write to the suni.

Still trying to debug this, but thanks for the help so far. I woiuld
appreciate any further advice on your part.
