Help Building RTEMS for Windows NT

Tue Dec 4 10:42:46 UTC 2001

Only a litle trick.
While THIS compilation step process
RENAME \winnt\system32\cmd.exe to cmdxxx.exe in order to avoid execute bad
16 bits exe programs compiled by gcc cross compiler.

After this you can undo the changes and run the compiler without problems.

Also you can touch the register changind the key to run 16 bits exe
programs.
Rename is more easy.
Enjoy.

Hi,
looks like you are missing some tools here. Did you use the Cygwin-Install
of the OAR site? Then you could have use the rpm-files. These do a lot of
good for you. (I know: it's a big download... :-( )
You are at least missing autoconf, automake etc. These maight be quite
important in the building process... Goodluck!
wkr,
Gerke
