1.1       root        1: 1/3/89 Pace Willisson
                      2: 
                      3: Here is what to do to bring up gcc & tools on an 80386 running system 5.3
                      4: (if you are adventurous and want to use the latest and greatest tools.
                      5: If you want it to be easy, check back in a couple of months.)
                      6: 
                      7: All of these instructions assume you are using the usg compiler.  After
                      8: you get to the end, you could start over using the gnu compiler, but 
                      9: that may not work yet ...
                     10: 
                     11: First make gcc, cpp, and gnulib:
                     12: 
                     13:        cd .../gcc
1.1.1.2 ! root       14:        config.gcc i386-sysv-gas
1.1       root       15:        make install
                     16: 
                     17: (The i386gnu type was added a little after gcc-1.32)
                     18: (the install part doesn't really work - you will have to look at
                     19: what it tries to do, and do it by hand.)
                     20: 
                     21: Now, make the gnu assembler:
                     22: 
                     23:        cd .../gas
                     24:        make a386
                     25:        cp a386 /usr/local/lib/gcc-as
                     26: 
                     27: Now, make the other utilities:
                     28: 
                     29:        cd .../binutils
                     30: 
                     31: edit Makefile to turn on the CFLAGS for USG using COFF_ENCAPSULATE
                     32: 
                     33:        make
                     34:        cp ld /usr/local/lib/gcc-ld
                     35: 
                     36: Put the other programs (size nm strip ar objdump and ranlib) somewhere
                     37: handy, but don't clobber your usg programs.  I put them all in
                     38: /usr/gnu/gnucomp, and I have this shell script in my path under the name "gnu":
                     39: 
                     40:        exec /usr/gnu/gnucomp/$*
                     41: 
                     42: That way, I can say "gnu nm a.out", etc.
                     43: 
                     44: Convert the libraries to the encapsulated format:
                     45: 
                     46:        make libc.a
                     47:        cp libc.a /usr/local/lib/gnu/libc.a
                     48: 
                     49:        cp .../gcc/gnulib usg-gnulib
                     50:        make gnulib
                     51:        cp gnulib /usr/local/lib/gcc-gnulib
                     52: 
                     53:        robotussin /lib/crt0.o /usr/local/lib/gcc-crt0.o
                     54: 
                     55: Now, you should be able to use 'gcc' to compile programs.
