The --target is used for the Processor in Question.
For making the GNU system target R3000 on a 68K VME machine, this option
would be set to the desired settings. {Now I have to find those settings
right? Heh.}
The GNU source is best looked at under Linux.
If you have a spare system with a 1Gb Hard Drive, load Redhat 5.X and go
through the man pages. I would not know where to start right now, but
leave me a message at : skennedy@admin.humberc.on.ca  and I will see what
I can do.
