OS Specific Toolchain - Build error

Post by 0fb1d8 »

Hi guys... 0fb1d8 here.
The OSDev wiki has been a very good support to my development of my operating system, Arcrascent OS.
Anyways, I think the porting guides for OS-Specific toolchain should be updated. The libbfd library for binutils keep saying that the object formats given on the wiki are unrecognized. :twisted: :twisted:

Can anybody fix this??

Thanks! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Please don't be condescending. This is entirely a volunteer thing and I take pride in my wiki contributions. I can't fix the issue based on your original post, you simply don't give enough information, please realize that. Please also avoid overly using smileys, and the ones you used here sends an annoying message.

My latest revision of OS Specific Toolchain was made with binutils-2.24, which is still the latest version. It works when I tested it and as far as I am aware. Are you using a pre-release version or is there a bug in the tutorial?

I find it more likely you made an error yourself. I'll try to see if I can help you if you share more information. Please share your full patch set as a diff from the base binutils release and what errors occur when you do that.

(Side note: Your signature is a bit large vertically, could you trim it a bit?)

Also sorry if the post was annoying
