So I'm not willing to spend the time and money to set up a Linux box at home that would serve only to build SMTC kernels. For better or for worse, my home office system is a Windows XP machine. I've got Cygwin installed, and that gives me git to peruse the sources, but I've got no means of building a kernel. I know that, in theory, I could build my own MIPS/Linux cross tools under Cygwin, but looking at various email archives, it looks like the procedure is moderately complex and fragile, and, frankly, I just don't have the spare time to deal with it. By any chance, could one of you point me to a functional, pre-built package I could install under Cygwin to do kernel builds? Regards, Kevin K.
