I noticed that, but it looked like mintlib wrapped most of the cases. I hadn't looked at the kernel itself yet. The only problem I had was that it was using the already installed system headers of mintlib (from an older version) and not the version I was compiling, so I had to manually copy before compiling and installing. I'll keep those diffs around in case I decide to tackle the kernel later on today ;) > I have also a problem with a const pointer passed as parameter, used to > initialize a local const pointer, in freemint/sys/xfs/ext2fs/bitmap.h: That one I've not seen, but I'll take your word for it! BTW, I finally got a GCC cross-compiler working. It works great with binutils 2.13 but with newer versions, the patch applies cleanly and it compiles just fine, but GCC won't link right. I haven't tried 3.4 or 4.0 yet, but 3.3.5 works fine.
