This command won't work for a cross-environment either, naturally. Why do you need to run it? Anything else that doesn't work there? Anyway, you can create a Debian chroot on the N900, ssh into it, and build there. It has a reasonably large disk. Not sure about that Android tablet, but I heard you can run a Linux chroot on Android as well. -- Tzafrir Cohen | [email protected] | VIM is http://tzafrir.org.il | | a Mutt's [email protected] | | best [email protected] | | friend -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
