Help,
I am having problems building a cross-compile environment. I've tried it
before and am now trying again.
My base system is an Intel RedHat 5.2 installation, upgraded to Linux 2.2 (
via the redhat upgrade instructions)
I am attempting to follow the 'Building the GNU toolchain for ARM targets'
instructions helpfully provided by Chris Rutter.
I've tried to perform the steps several time but can never get a kernel to
build.
I have two problems at the moment.
Question
--------------
Following the binutils section I don't get any 'Hunk #1 ..' messages when I
patch binutils.
I don't find any .rej files so I carry on, but when i attempt to
'./configure' binutils it fails ( see the output below)
Next Question ( kernel Headers section)
------ --------------
If I am putting my 'cross compile' environment in /home/arm does this mean I
should use the following commands to copy the kernel headers across
% mkdir /home/arm/include
% cp -a /home/arm/dev-kernel/include/asm-arm /home/arm/include/asm
% cp -a /home/arm/dev-kernel/include/linux /home/arm/include/linux
( My ARM kernel sources are in /arm/dev-kernel)
If anyone can help, It might put my faith back into cross compilers, at the
moment the intel box is moving closer and closer to that open window, and
I'm moving closer and closer to that white room with the padded walls :-)
Thanks
Iain
