Jerome,
Sorry I didn't understand what you want, or complain about that page.
Feel free to edit and add what you think is important.
I can only write about things I know, and understand. That tip about
Linaro toolchain was very good thanks, I will take a look.
The wiki is for anyone, from anyone. So add your way, so people can know of.
Whoa, I really don't mean to sound cross about anything.
For that page, my critique is: from the terseness of the
crosstool-ng part it lacks usefulness and I'm willing to
help.
My first name is Douglas, not Jerome.
Willian,
I feel the same way, I just want to build my kernel, boot and use. I'm
not a expert, I'm a newbie, so I need first a easier and faster way to
get where I want.
For me, what I know about crosstool-ng is that you can choose many
variables and build a perfect compiler for you, using uLibc, gLibc
what ever you need. And I don't see yet why "In that case perhaps
crosstool-ng may be the way to go." . What I'm missing in this case ?
What crosstool-ng is so much better than a preconfigured gcc from
ubuntu servers ?
For what it's worth, from someone who uses crosstool-ng but not
a pre-built cross tool chain, I don't think it's fair to say
crosstool-ng is so much better in an open ended way.
When you build code for a Linux system the tool chain supplies
the glibc interface (header files and library files) which has
the Linux kernel system call interface; if you want some
particular version of those, then building your own cross-tool
chain with those versions can be so much better than using a
pre-built cross tool chain. If you use a pre-built cross tool
chain, what versions of glibc and Linuc kernel is your
cross-built code targeted to? I am being glibc-centric
here, I know.
Cheers.
