Go for the latest scratchbox packages.

The architecture you're going for will determine the toolchain for you.

additionally I tried several toolchains
I understand that
scratchbox-toolchain-cs2009q3-eglibc2.10-armv7-soft-1.0.19-6-i386.tar.gz
is probably targeteds for ARMv7 instruction set i.e. not for me, but
what is
scratchbox-toolchain-arm-linux-cs2010q1-202-1.0.17-2-i386.tar.gz??

The first one is recompiled from Codesourcery's sources with -march=armv7-a -mfloat-abi=hard -mfpu=neon. The latter one is Codesourcery's compiled toolchain packaged for Scratchbox.

what is the soft/hard distinction ??

The soft/hard disctinction is for softfp/hardfp. If there's nothing mentioned on the (arm) toolchain, you can assume it's softfp.

See the mfloat-abi option in man gcc.

I tried setting up several targets for these toolchains but when i tried
installing files I would get 'failed to install c-library for target...'

Can you show me the target configuration? Which command did you use to install the c-library?

Finally, i am fuzzy about the qemu-arm and qemu-armeb cpu-transparency
methods...

The latter is for big endian architectures.
