computer: Decstation 3100, 8Mbyte memory
gcc v1.36, ftp'd from prep.ai.mit.edu
I have been attempting to install gcc-1.36 on a Decstation 3100, 8 Mb.
After running "config.gcc decstation", the first compile with cc runs
fine.
However, the stage 1 self compile grabs more and more and more virtual
memory, until the whole computer just stops (can't rlogin, can't login, etc).
I did remove the "-g" from the CFLAGS in the stage 1 compile. Is there
an alternate compilation order, or something, that is less memory hungry?
Is there a minimum amount of real memory for gcc to compile in finite time?
We have a disk that we can construct a 400 Mb swap space on: would this help?
Of course, I would like very much to hear from someone who has got it
running on a ds3100.
