Hello!
I need very urgent help with Beta!
The problem is the following: I have upgraded my Linux-System to
ELF-Binary format, because I have a Java Development Kit that
needs ELF. But now, after completly re-newing my Linux-System
I have problems running Beta! It is the ELF-Format that makes
the problems, I think.
Compiling BETA-Programs (e.g. the hello.bet Demo) causes an
error with ld. ld cannot find crt0.o in /usr/lib. And, having
a look at /usr/lib shows us, that beta (or better: ld) is right:
there is no crt0.o - the crt0.o is located in the directory with
Linux's old aout-libs: /usr/i486-linuxaout/lib.
But Beta uses /usr/lib as it's lib directory. How can I change
this? Perhaps changing something in BETALIB/configuration/current ?
