Install a cross-compiling gcc (this isn't hard), and then install GNAT over it. Where you might come unstuck is compiling the Ada runtime system on the host machine. By the way, I am wanting to port GNAT to NetBSD/68k, so we should keep in touch --- we're doing an almost identical task. -- Greg Baker - - http://www.matra.com.au/~gregb - - gbaker@matra.com.au - predictions of the future - quantum computers - silly poetry - - the "langue musicale universale" (Solresol) revival project -
