Hi
xeno.sim.patch contains some clarification on how to build the xenoscope. (GCC
3.4 worked for me on a x86 system, but with a lot of warnings, that fwritable
is deprecated)
xeno.patch is a shorter way how to cross-compile using the CROSS_COMPILE
variable. It worked for me without any problems for my board.
Also contains a hint to use O=../a-build-dir to compile the linux kernel.

Since cross-compiling requires specific tools, such tools are generally
