Better take some old box (perhaps something incompatible with your current workstation), choose some purpose (eg. tiny fileserver or router) and think about what's exactly needed for this. Then build these packages step by step through the crosscompiler. Don't even consider using any distro yet (not even ptxdist) - the goal is learning, not getting anything built quickly. > Folks on this list will help you with identifying and > solving your problem. You'll also might consider subscribing to the crossgcc list. Ah, and for building a cross-toolchain, crosstool-ng is your friend: http://ymorin.is-a-geek.org/dokuwiki/projects/crosstool Once you've got used to it all, you can grab out an old settop or router box and really dive into the embedded world. cu -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Enrico Weigelt == metux IT service - http://www.metux.de/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please visit the OpenSource QM Taskforce: http://wiki.metux.de/public/OpenSource_QM_Taskforce Patches / Fixes for a lot dozens of packages in dozens of versions: http://patches.metux.de/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
