24 | <para>Yaboot defaults to build as 32bit, so we need to pass appropriate |

25 | options to both the compiler and the linker. To prevent the build from |

26 | failing due to compiler warnings, the -Werror flag is removed. The |
---|
27 | Makefile already overrides any CC and ignores LDFLAGS in favour of |
---|
28 | its own variables, so we need to use the following seds for a |
---|
29 | successful compile and install.</para> |
