No. > I am on a lost cause? Crosstools is not what you need. You will want to build a traditional cross gcc against your Solaris's headers and libraries. Nowadays, a sys-rooted built probably is the most simple approach. It basically means: 1. Copy the target's /usr/include and /usr/lib to a location on your linux machine (Or nfs mount a solaris machine's '/' under linux) and then 2. Build and install binutils configure --target=sparc-sun-solaris2.8 --prefix=<somewhere> make install 3. Build and install GCC export PATH=<somewhere>/bin configure --target=sparc-sun-solaris2.8 --prefix=<somewhere> \ --sys-root=<solaris root> [more options] make install > Do I need some other tools? Any one has an idea > if its possible to build binaries for solaris on a linux machine? Yes, not for solaris2.8 but for solaris2.7, and not sys-rooted ... Ralf ------ Want more information?
