[Gems-users] GEMS compilation problem with Simics 4.2

[rajath hegde <rajathsh@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

    I am trying to compile GEMS 2.1.1 with Simics 4.2. I have updated the makefiles to reflect this changes. BUt when I try to compile Ruby I am getting the following error:

vm-partha-01% make PROTOCOL=MOSI_SMP_bcast DESTINATION=MOSI_SMP_bcast

Please help me out in resolving this issue.

If anyone has got the GEMS successfully working with Simics 4.2, could you please share any particular details that could help us in getting the GEMS working with Simics.
