Experimental Physics and
Industrial Control System

Hi Philip,

I forget if we ever worked out what the problem was in that report, but please try building for the vxWorks-ppc32 target instead; this produces binaries that can be loaded on almost every 32-bit PowerPC VxWorks 6.x target and is what we use here at the APS (the exceptions are the MVME3100 and possibly 4100 boards which need the -ppc32sf target for soft-float instructions). We keep the older targets for VxWorks 5.5.x builds of the same version of Base so our IOCs can be upgraded in stages.

HTH,

- Andrew
