Right.

The issue would be whether or not the arm/armel gcc binaries support
the right target characteristics:

<danderson> the target system is an arm7, with no MMU, so no linux for starters
<danderson> I suspect that if debian supports an arm architecture,
it'd be arm9 or higher
<helmut> -mcpu=arm7?
<danderson> arm7tdmi
* danderson digs out the arm-elf-gcc configuration
<danderson> arm-elf, arm7 cpu, thumb interworking support, software
floating point emulation. That's the combination I need.

Any emdebian/other folks know if this is an option?
