Hello,
I've built a NetBSD/mac68k release from -current, cross-compiled on a
i386 machine.
The booter complains that the kernel isn't in a format that could be
understood. The file was ftp'd in binary mode and appears to be the
right type of file...
$ file /netbsd*
/netbsd: ELF 32-bit MSB executable, Motorola 68000, version 1,
statically linked, not stripped
/netbsd-GENERIC: ELF 32-bit MSB executable, Motorola 68000, version 1,
statically linked, not stripped
/netbsd.old: NetBSD/m68k pure executable not stripped
The existing kernel, "netbsd.old", was built from the 1.5.3 sources on
the IIci (wicked slow!). Thus the desire to cross-compile. But it works.
The others are the GENERIC kernel built from -current and one of my own
builds from -current.
What might be going wrong?
Please let me know what I can do to provide more information, or to help
out (or if I'm just missing something simple...)
Thanks,
Louis
