This is fantastic! I believe that it would have saved me at least an hour last Saturday had I known about your page. Ah well. It looks like your page is a good reference for building a "straight" cross-compiler environment. Building applications based on glibc that will actually run on the target machine with Linux as the OS. What I was trying to do to begin with was a bit simpler - just build a cross environment to allow code to run on one of the PPC boards that are available. No OS yet, certainly not glibc. What I imagined is having one environment for building the "simple" environment, and a later one for actually building the applications to run on Linux with glibc. -Dan ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list.
