Most certainly. But i need to verify several things before doing do so. As it stands the tool chain is gcc and friends with cygwin on doze. Not a word on using the toolchain on linux. And the licence in the cygwin source directory says gpl. So it's not an alternate reality cygwin port as supplied by RedHat. A compile generates an elf arm binary.The only kernels that i know of that run an elf binary on arm is linux and qnx. Not sure of bsd. The images supplied is a gpgp encoded and zipped file (that much i found out while checking some scripts hidden in the interiors). Now to decrypt the image and grep the binary. Since this is a "pro" system the fs has to be mtd and jffs which afaik are gpld. Let see what come of it. -- Rgds JTD -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
