Hi,
I've just installed 2.11BSD on one of my PDPs, from a TK50 tape I just
re-discovered in the trunk of my car. And now I'm in the process of
applying patches. When I installed patch 412 and started to rebuild the
kernel, ld complains with a "ld: too big for type 431".
Does this means that I have to rearrange stuff between the BASE and the
various OV entries?
How can I find out which overlay is too big? I've tried to do a:
138% root--> size unix.o
text data bss dec hex
52352 6928 37622 96902 17a86 total text: 115520
overlays: 7680,7232,7808,7744,4864,8576,4736,6848,7680
How big is too big? And also if none of the overlays above are too big, I
guess it must be the BASE that is too big?
Is there some sort of documentation anywhere that describe this voodoo
stuff and black magic a bit?
Btw, I've put my makefile is at http://spektr.eu.org/~jp/Makefile.LOKE.
Any suggestions on what .o file I should move to what overlay?
Thanks!

While reading back through the mailing list messages, trying to find out why
my tape images never seem to work, I came across a program that I cannot
seem to find. It was mentioned lately as "makesimtape.c" but I cannot find
it anywhere in the archives. Anybody have a lead on this?
Thanks,
