Why? There are so many precompiled toolchains available for i386linux
that doing it yourself is only necessary if you want to be able to
cross compile on a non-i386linux system.

That's because you didn't configure the ARM tree. Run "make
bitsy_config; cp arch/arm/defconfig .config ; make oldconfig" to
configure your tree.

Even more reason to skip that stage, IMHO. Just download a precompiled
cross compiler and start playing. If you get more experience, you might
try to build it yourself.
