parisc-linux-ld
Hi Alex !
Could maybe someone make me a patched "parisc-linux-ld" binary, where I can do
parisc-linux-ld -R xyz -N ( or any other letter for -R)
where xyz should be the origin of the ELF-binary, which is currently 0x2000 as seen in the mapfile ? (or is there any other possibility, because -R at GNU-ld is not used for origin, but for symbol-names...).
If I would have such an patched linker, I maybe could try make the cross-compiled ELF-binary bootable.....

Work has started to rewrite the hppa elf tools (gcc and binutils). However, Jeff Law has indicated that the relocations done by ld have a lot of bugs. He has strongly recommended that the elf tools not be used until the rewrite is complete. However, having said that, it would be useful to develop an ipl that could load an elf kernel.
With ld, the text origin can be set with "-Ttext address" or using a loader script (see arch/parisc/hp/vmlinux.lds). The headers describing the elf format can be found in binutils/include/elf.
