Have you used it ? Do you like it ? When I started I mostly did a roll my own environment using crosstool. I would have stuck to that except I can not get uclibc and it has not been updated in a long time. Crosstool-ng did not support the ppc last time I looked. Today I use buildroot - mostly just to build a toolchain - I have never been able to get it to do many of the other things it is capable of. I am not particularly fond (serious understatement) of "integrated solve all the problems of the world" environments, they rarely work, and you must think inside their box. I would be ecstatic with just a cygwin-linux-ppc-uclibc tool chain. Grant Likely wrote: > On Thu, Mar 19, 2009 at 5:59 PM, David H.
