bash: Specifying the System Type

 
 10.5 Specifying the System Type
 ===============================
 
 There may be some features 'configure' can not figure out automatically,
 but need to determine by the type of host Bash will run on.  Usually
 'configure' can figure that out, but if it prints a message saying it
 can not guess the host type, give it the '--host=TYPE' option.  'TYPE'
 can either be a short name for the system type, such as 'sun4', or a
 canonical name with three fields: 'CPU-COMPANY-SYSTEM' (e.g.,
 'i386-unknown-freebsd4.2').
 
    See the file 'support/config.sub' for the possible values of each
 field.
