Or download a prebuilt one from 
http://landley.net/code/firmware/downloads/binaries/cross-compiler/host-x86_64/cross-compiler-armv5l.tar.bz2

(I still find buildroot way overcomplicated for my tastes.  I admit it does a 
lot, but trying to understand how or get it _not_ to do some of it can be a 
long process.)

I find Linux From Scratch to be a nice starting point.  Build yourself a Linux 
system on your laptop that you can chroot into, understand what you're 
_doing_, then start worrying about poking at embedded systems.

They have their own mailing lists on that website...
