- My previous post was made in reference to Godmar Back's port of Kaffe to
- ARM/NetBSD. If you ftp the latest version -- kaffe-0.10.1.tar.gz from
- ftp.transvirtual.com, you will find a configuration file and
- thread-switch code for ARM/NetBSD. Note that you cannot use that file
- though; see my previous post for details.
-
- If you follow the hints I gave, it should not take that long. Maybe even
- a few minutes like you claim. The hard part is finding out those little
- gotchas in the first place, and that is what took me a couple of weeks.
- If you have ported anything in the past you will know what I mean --
- it's easier said than done to simply type "configure; make; make
- install" and expect things to work when switching OSes, even when using
- the same CPU.
