Hi All,
I don't mean to be a nuisance by re-posting the same old question,
but I really need help here. I must be doing something wrong but I
don't know what. I am not trying to do anything spectacularly different
right now, just simply compile some tools for an embedded Arm-Linux
board. Has anyone had success cross compiling for the EBSA-285? The
instructions I have been following seem to be for arm-linux
in general, rather than EBSA-285 Cross Compiler specific.
Desperate to get this thing to work.
Greg.
