Er, doesn't objcopy also do that? (In reply to comment #1) > Er, doesn't objcopy also do that? If it does, I can't find the proper incantation to make it do so. # objcopy -O a.out-sparc-linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.21-1.3149.al3.12 \ vmlinuz-2.6.21-1.3149.al3.12.aout.2 objcopy: Unable to change endianness of input file(s) # objcopy -O a.out-sunos-big /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.21-1.3149.al3.12 \ vmlinuz-2.6.21-1.3149.al3.12.aout.2 BFD: vmlinuz-2.6.21-1.3149.al3.12.aout.2: can not represent section `.rodata' in a.out object file format objcopy: vmlinuz-2.6.21-1.3149.al3.12.aout.2: Nonrepresentable section on output BFD: vmlinuz-2.6.21-1.3149.al3.12.aout.2: can not represent section `.rodata' in a.out object file format objcopy: vmlinuz-2.6.21-1.3149.al3.12.aout.2: Nonrepresentable section on output The former produces an empty output file, the latter no output file. The listed formats include: objcopy: supported targets: elf32-sparc a.out-sparc-linux elf64-sparc a.out-sunos-big elf64-little elf64-big elf32-little elf32-big srec symbolsrec tekhex binary ihex None of those look like what we want, unless I'm missing something. Okay, it was decided a few days ago that there wasn't too much point in us keeping people from doing unusual or flat-out insane things, so Dennis removed the EA from elftoaout, and 2.3-10 was built for Rawhide i386/ppc/ppc64/x86_64 on 2007-08-23. As a result, I'm going to close this bug. |
