Unrecognized target when building gcc [Solved]

Post by sugarloaf »

i'm using the cross compiler tutorial on the wiki with the target i686-elf but configuring gcc yields this failure message: Configuration i686-pc-elf not supported -- i would assume the 'pc' section of the target is what is causing my woes but i am unsure of how to remove it

use i686-none-elf until you know you can change it.

i already attempted this in my desperation but the cause of the error was my own ineptitude as i was using gcc 2.95 assuming a version that old would work

don't make my stupid mistake kids because the ftp repository is sorted by date in ascending order
